    Is there a bayonet lug on these?

    No. I'm not sure why people are calling these trench guns!? They aren't. If they were, they'd have the heat sheild that incorporates the bayonet lug and sling swivel.

    These are Riot gun copies, which were the same, but without the heat shield/bayonet lug and sling swivel.

    Trench gun sounds cooler I guess, but it's wrong.

    Yes, if it had the bayonet lug and heatshield I'd buy one.
    This would be good for CAS though.

    No. Comes in two varieties - mdf like wood dust and some Asian hardwood that is somehow similar to catalpa.
    Everything happens for a reason. Sometimes the reason is that you're stupid and you make bad decisions.

    You would think they would know the difference?

    I wonder who currently makes the nicest, plain grain walnut stocks for these old guns?

    There's definitely a small market for some one to buy a bunch of walnut stocks, some repro trench stuff and then spend a bit of time slicking things up and locking things down..... not everyone is looking for a "project"

    That's exactly what I.A.C. used to do down in the USA.
    They could not continue on though as (allegedly) the Chinese factories were unable or unwilling to maintain some quality standard.
