WW1 French M1914 Remington Rolling Block Bayonet

The WW1 French M1914 Remington Rolling Block bayonet was produced for rifles supplied to France during the early years of the First World War, particularly the Remington-made Rolling Block rifles chambered in 8mm Lebel. Manufactured by Remington Arms, these bayonets reflect a blend of French military requirements and American production methods. Typically featuring a long, slender blade and a simple, utilitarian hilt, they were designed for mass wartime issue rather than ornate finish. Many examples show variations in markings and finish due to the urgency of wartime contracts, and today they are relatively scarce compared to standard French bayonets, making them of interest to collectors focused on WW1 or contract weapons.
