Is there a "correct" bayonet for use on a Chinese SKS? Blade or spike? Or does it matter?

I think most chinese SKS's had the spike but I believe early ones had the blade.  Check out simonov You will find out everything you ever wanted to know about SKS's there.

Hmmmm...

Simonov.net says that bayonets on Chinese SKS rifles are not legal.


Simonov uberlaw


BAYONETS:

SUMMARY:  I need to write the BATF for more clarification about this one...  A post-ban Russian Simonov may legally possess it's bayonet so long as it's still 922(r) compliant.  No post-ban, imported Chinese SKS can keep this feature. Romanian and Yugoslavian SKS are up in the air as they are not C&R listed last I looked.  However, in the past Yugoslavian Simonovs and more recently a boatload of Romanians were imported with the bayonet, so they may have been recently listed as C&R eligible or approved for import and possession.




ATF shows no listing for Chinese SKS in the C&R list. Damn.
