| Nuclear Duck Hunter ![]() | As long as there is a chance of close combat action, there will be bayonets. A spear beats a knife anytime.

| Centurion | I think bayonets are out of vogue. The most missions are against the terror and if you stand in town you may don't have the time to plant your bayonet on you weapon, so I think a good combat-knife will be the better choise in a close combat action.

| Tribuni Angusticlavii | Well, the SKS has an integral bayonet, so if an insurgent has no other alternatives than an "ALLAHU AKBAR!" charge it might see some use.

| 100% Space Shuttle Door Gunner | Bayonets were used by the Brits during the Invasion of Iraq. The Bayonet will always have a place on the battlefield.

War since 1990 in fact would be won by air force to 60 %, 20% by special forces and the last 20% are troops. Take a look on Desert Storm, the major offensive of ground troops take three days and it was over. So long Légionnaire
