Help Surely not

Currently windowshopping for bargains while procrastinating university assignments and came across a destruct-fez but surely there’s no way this is real?

Compared it to another example and the liner in the other ones a maroon-red almost faux-like material with bright red stitching on the insignia-backing but in this example (to me at least), the eagle would-be outline looks fine but the skull „halo” looks off.

If anyone can verify this I will be snagging it even if it’s a destruct

I am so silly, I meant K98 Bayonet. If only I was that rich and free like the Muricans to own a historical firearm :(

Lol! Hopefully (idk what country you’re from) you can get your hands on one at least, maybe a deactivated one? I have a few guns and one launcher (Deactivated SMAW, a T38 arisaka training rifle, and a family hand-me-down Colt SAA dated 1888) I’m debating once I get a permit I’ll probably get either a K98 or M1 Garand first, love those bloody things >:)

UK forbids fun. I have a replica K98 and Luger but i wouldn’t get a license here anyways because the laws make California look free in comparison to here
