I love bayonets and will die on this hill. Or maybe I won't, because I have a bayonet.

Army has not done significant bayonet training for a long time.
I guess if you're going to be defending your house with a rifle that will accept a bayonet, it makes sense to learn to use a bayonet.
OK, I gotta ask. Why was it a gig and verbotten to sharpen a bayonet, and why would doing so render it unserviceable? Is that a training thing?
.Timothy Mullin said his best use of a bayoneted rifle was to keep POWs in line
Just keep in mind that if you stick someone with your bayonet and kill them, someone's probably going to ask why you didn't shoot them if you felt lethal force was justified. You'd better have a reason for why you chose to stab them instead of shoot.
"Why didn't you just shoot him?", it would be good to have an answer ready.
