M1915 bayonet training rifle by C G Bonehill Birmingham, wood butt with the manufacturer’s name together with broad arrow and 1916 date stamps. Constructed like a rifle with wood stock and cup steel butt plate the action and barrel are just a tube, with wooden fore stock, containing a large coil spring into which a floating steel rod is secured with a steel disk to the front all in good working order, on contact with an opponent the rod compresses into the tube simulating bayonet combat.
