Those are tube mount bayonets like many of the 19th century long guns have.  When not in use, the soldiers flip the bayonet around and mount it backwards.  It is NOT a side folding bayonet and the 'weird plug' at the end of the rifle is merely the tube mount for the bayonet, except that it is mounted backwards to keep it with the rifle.

Thanks for the remarks, much appreciated. I initially thought the M91/30 bayonets, when not affixed to the rifle, were carried 'sword like' so your explanation makes perfect sense in explaining the plugs I could not identify.

In the meantime, I also revised the descriptions to make good for your explanation and I deleted the M44 rifle entry for this movie. On closer examination they did turn out to be M91/30 rifles after all.--[[User:PeeWee055|PeeWee055]] 04:47, 6 September 2011 (CDT)

Wrong description of the Mosin Nagant bayonets

Those are tube mount bayonets like many of the 19th century long guns have. When not in use, the soldiers flip the bayonet around and mount it backwards. It is NOT a side folding bayonet and the 'weird plug' at the end of the rifle is merely the tube mount for the bayonet, except that it is mounted backwards to keep it with the rifle.
