SKIPH Posted December 31, 2014 Share #3 Posted December 31, 2014 Plated or spray painted. Never seen gold finish on any bayonet. SKIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigkahunasix Posted December 31, 2014 Share #5 Posted December 31, 2014 I'd bet almost anything that they are titanium nitride coated, not gold. And that its been done in the last 15 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captain-03 Posted December 31, 2014 Author Share #6 Posted December 31, 2014 Never have thought it was gold ... Like I said above, they look too good to have been plated that long ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted December 31, 2014 Share #7 Posted December 31, 2014 Gold does not tarnish like copper-based alloys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
