Identified in Carter's Vol III of German
bayonets as an Ersatz bayonet made form the Belgian Garde Civic bayonet
for the 1888 Rifle, later research identified this as a Uruguayan contract
bayonet.
This ID was through the lack of Belgian
acceptance marks and the atypical cross guard serial
Muzzle ring has been dished to fit securely on
the 88 rifle
