EF Horster Firemans Bayonet

[Mauser888]

Does this one look OK? D.R.P. stamped on the back of the frog. Looks a little strange to me as I have not seen this metal on a leather frog before.

DRP is for the Postal service. TPK

Not Firemans bayonet. Are there any DRP markings on the bayonet. TPK

Not a Feuerwehr bayonet, as has been said. Looks like a typical Army/Luft KS98 bayonet.

The frog is not a Reichspost frog. The "DRP" on the metal back plate stands for Deutsches Reichspatent. As far as we know, these frogs have no connection to the Reichspost & are just a variant frog, presumably at an extra cost.

Billy G is correct. Patent marking, not Postal.
