16" with A2 would put the bayonet ring on the barrel itself, I think a bayonet would have a solid position, and thus be usable, on a 14.5 with Phantom.

Great question, was wondering the same thing. Don't they make different size bayonets for mounting with different spaces between the mount and the flash hider?

With a FS/FH the correct diameter for the hole in the bayonet handguard, a "bolt-on" bayonet lug can usually be placed in the correct position on most 16" barrels to get a secure mount - assuming you don't mind the look of an extra, bolted-on bayonet lug forward of your FSB.
e.g., www.dpmsinc.com/10Browse.asp |

www.prebanarms.com has M7 bayoned already modified, or you can get the 'plastic' add on for you bayonet. It didn't fit my M9, as it was designed for a M7. However, with a dremmel tool, and a little bit of welding and tapping- I got it to work. Check it out:

here's a Hot link to that prebanarms Bayo page for you
CLICK HERE Thats the only place I have heard of them It makes sense that the standard bayo wont fit, given the fact that the extra 1.5+" (difference in 14.5" and 16.1" barrels) is from the Bayo lug to the end of the barrel. That would cover the blade of the bayo by as much. sounds confusing, but it isn't if you think it thru |

Bayo will mount on 14.5 with Phantom correctly. Steve |

Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!!! Damn it all, who do I have to bribe around here? Come on, sell me yours - surely I have something you'd like in trade? I'll also be wanting CeramicGod's bayo as well. I'm to lazy to make them myself, someone help me! |

Well, I'd certainly consider making a few and putting up a post to sell them on here, if people are interested. THe only problem I come across is where to get the M9's reasonably priced? Everything I see lately is $100+.
So, $100 ish for hte bayo, $35 bux for the added parts - are people willing to buy M9's that fit 16" carbines for $175 bux? (For my time and labor, of course). Thoughts? |
