3.Canadian Ross Rifle bayonet with combined scabbard & frog.

OK,I know this isn't British Home Front,but there's a reason I bought this,it's because one of the first rifles to be used by the Home Guard was the Canadian Ross.
I think this is the mark 2 bayo in the mark 1 scabbard.

Interesting crown between the GR & VI markings on the lamp - a Victorian style, rather than the sloping shouldered Tudor Crown of the Edward II - George VI period.
