Need help ID-ing this bayonet (found in tornado debris)

[fustigate]

I was helping with tornado cleanup/demo with my church in Moore today (still a LOT of work to be done) and found this bayonet. The homeowner was not there to ask. I cannot figure out what it is, but I figure someone here will know
[Hopefully these pix aren't too big...]

It's very rusty, so some details are lost. It's 20" long, including the "muzzle." It's not a blade-style, but has a squarish or star cross section from the four fullers (sometimes erroneously called "blood grooves").

I didn't get a picture, but if you notice, it doesn't taper to a point, but a more like a slotted screwdriver does. (Perhaps not original.)

It's outer diameter is only 1", which narrows down the calibers it could be for.

You can see it above and here: there is a grooved spring release at the mortise.

It has some Arabic numerals; seems to be "1119." The spring release is on the right.

Looks like a Mosin bayonet.

I was just looking at one and wondered... https://www.mainemilitary.com/ProductCart/pc/viewPrd.asp?idproduct=1233

Mosin Nagant M91/30 Bayonet ... would be my guess.

Ohh, so that's what they look like clean
And the taper is indeed original.

Thanks for being awesome and smart, OSA-ers!

That looks like it's been out in the weather longer than 2 months.

Mosin bayos used to be cheap enough to use as tomato stakes. As ronny said, that's been buried for quite a while.

Mosin 91/30 bayonet for sure.

Good point... there's no telling. I wish the homeowner (eh... lot-where-a-house-used-to-be owner) was there so I could have asked. It's totally possible this was deposited from several miles away...
I'm not sure what our policy is. If it's not claimed and we can't get ahold of anyone, I might have myself a brand new tomato stake

Yep thats a mosin bayonet. That thing would make for a nasty piece of flying debris! Good news though, Its probably gonna be easier to clean now than if it were covered in cosmoline!
