Rare Sudan M16 Bayonet

Knife bayonet for use on the 7.62 mm. NATO caliber Armalite AR–10 selective-fire rifles produced for Sudan.This bayonet is patterned after the innovative German FG 42 knife bayonet produced during the Second World War. The hollow hilt contains a tool set. The grip scales and scabbard body are a deep red-brown color.

The Sudanese AR–10 was the first AR–10 variant to mount a bayonet. The Sudanese-type bayonet was made in Germany, most likely by the firm of Carl Eickhorn (designer & producer of the FG 42 knife bayonet). The bayonets were sold to Sudan.
