If you have comments to make or news or articles to contribute, send them to [email protected] All views (and errors) expressed here are those of the Editor and not necessarily those of the NZAHAA Inc. Phil Cregeen, Editor [email protected] AN INTERESTING BAYONET by Phil Cregeen © 2012 I must confess I bought the top bayonet in the above picture on Trade Me on impulse, because it intrigued me. Was it 1.a genuine officially modified Pattern ’07 or 2. one cut down by a collector to emulate a trials bayonet such as the Australian Shortened and Lightened No 1 (see BCB A12) or Owen bayonet (see BCB A 13), or 3. had a pig hunter cut it down for a pig sticker? As you can see it is very similar to an Australian Owen gun bayonet (lower) and it came in an Owen bayonet scabbard marked MANGROVITE ’44. However the bayonet itself is manufactured by MOLE and dated 3/18. Like the Owen Mk I Bayonet introduced in 1944 it has a10 inch blade, however the fuller carries through the point and this has only been curved on the lower side unlike the Owen which has a slight curve on the top of the point. Note too that India shortened many Pat ’07 bayonets including British & Australian ones although these normally had 12 inch blades.

  • The Owen Gun Story in Brief
    lllawarra Historical Society Bulletin 1st November, 1982 71 THE OWEN GUN STORY IN BRIEF Around July 1939, the late Evelyn (Evo) Owen, then a civilian, submitted the .22 submachine gun he had invented to the Army Inventions Board, Victoria Barracks, Melbourne. After study, they stated they had no interest in it nor in any submachine gun-the policy of the British Army until the outbreak of World War II in Sep­ tember 1939. Owen enlisted and when on final leave in September 1940 he was seconded to the Army Inventions Board with an offer from Lysaght's Works Pty. Ltd., Port Kembla, to assisst the A.I.B. in mak­ ing up a trial model for the testing of Owen's last ideas. After some months of delay, Owen was given leave of absence and came to Lysaght's with a personal request from Captain C. M. Dyer, the Sec­ retary of the A.I.B., that Lysaght's make a trial gun to Owen's ideas. Though the Army stated that the gun should be for .38 revolver ammunition-the only small ammunition projected for manufacture in Australia-none was available, so .32 was chosen. The gun with single line side magazine was made by Lysaght's in three weeks and successfully test fired by the end of January 1941. Owen returned to the A.I.B. and after further discussions came back to Lysaght's at the end of February 1941 with fresh ideas. These were for a gun in .45 calibre (standard with the Thompson) operating on the same principle as the .32 but with a completely different configuration.

  • Step by Step: Australian Commandos Review & Painting Guide Bryan Cook Yet Again Astonishes Us with His Painting and Drops A
    Step by Step: Australian Commandos Review & Painting Guide Bryan Cook yet again astonishes us with his painting and drops a few words of wisdom on the new Australian Commandos. Review Bryan: G’day fellas! Warlord Games has finally released the first of it’s Australian range in the form of the Independent Company Commandos. The miniatures are fantastic sculpts, very accurate and a pleasure to paint. Read on and I’ll go over the boxed set in a little more detail, as well as a step by step painting guide you can follow to paint your own Aussies. The boxed set contains a full strength section of Australian Independent Company Commandos, being 10 men. They are equipped in a historically typical fashion with 6 sub machine guns, 1 Bren light machine gun and 4 Lee Enfield rifles. One of those rifles has a scope and the sub machine guns are the iconic, Australian designed and made Owen Gun. These really help to give the models that Australian look. The sculptor, the talented Steve Saleh, has taken this further by really paying close attention to period photos of the men he is representing in miniature. Take a look at this photo on the left and you’ll see what I mean. He has managed to capture the rugged look of the men of these units. They often sported beards as they would be out on 12 day long patrols in the jungle, behind Japanese lines. The style of beret worn by the Australian Commando units is also slightly different to their more well known British counterparts.
