Abstract:
A bayonet mounting fixture can adapt a rifle having a mounting rail to also have a bayonet mount. Previously, bayonets were often mounted to a firearm by passing the barrel through a hole in the guard and then attaching the rear end of the bayonet to a bayonet mount or mounting lug further back. The bayonet mounting fixture can have a forward mount and a rear mount attached to the mounting rail. The forward mount has a round piece that can go inside the hole in the bayonet's guard. The rear mount can have a mounting lug to which the rear end of the bayonet is attached.

Claim (Index 1):
A system for attaching a bayonet to a firearm, wherein the firearm comprises a mounting rail, wherein the bayonet comprises an attachment bore and a latching mechanism, the system comprising:\n a bayonet mounting fixture wherein the bayonet mounting fixture comprises a forward mount and a rear mount; wherein the forward mount comprises a round piece, and wherein the forward mount is configured to attach to the mounting rail; wherein the rear mount comprises a rear clamp and a mounting lug, wherein the rear clamp is configured to clamp onto the mounting rail, wherein the rear clamp comprises a rear clamp body, a rear bolt, and a rear jaw, wherein the rear clamp body is fixed to the mounting lug, wherein the rear clamp body and the rear jaw are configured to tighten onto the mounting rail so as to cause the rear clamp to clamp onto the mounting rail; wherein the rear bolt passes through the rear jaw and into the rear clamp body, and wherein the rear bolt is configured to be tightened so as to cause the rear clamp to clamp onto the mounting rail, thereby providing for attachment of the bayonet; and wherein the round piece is configured to rigidly and removeably fit into the attachment bore, and wherein the mounting lug is configured to rigidly and removeably attach to the latching mechanism to thereby attach the bayonet to the firearm.
