It fits the Winchester 1897 shotgun as well as the British Pattern 1914 rifle. This comes with a metal and leather scabbard with a FROG STUD. They are similar to the M1905 bayonets which do not fit the M1917 rifle. In order to differentiate the two, the M1917 had two (2x) slashes carved into the wooden grips. Overall, this bayonet is in Very Good Plus - Fine condition, considering its age. The press catch is functional with semi-stiff spring tension. Both the pommel and guard are securely fastened to the tang. They have scattered light scrapes and a superficial layer of oxidation. The coloring has started to turn a patina color. The two screw escutcheons securely fasten the wood grips. They have light oxidation with strong slots. The wood panels have light draglines, very small cracks around the screw holes and a couple compression marks. The wood has darkened with age. The spine, fullers and sides have light handling marks, but no notable wear. Some of the finish has worn off the leading edges. There are no nicks or dings on the blade, and it appears to have its original factory edge. The tip is intact and comes to a sharp straight point. Most of the remaining finish has turned to a plum patina color. The left side ricasso is marked "1917" and "REMINGTON" within a circle. The right side ricasso is marked with the Eagle head over "24" and the flaming bomb over "US". The leather/metal scabbard is in Very Good - Very Good Plus condition, considering its age. The locket and chape are both securely attached to the leather. They have a very light wiggle, this is more than likely due to the shrinking of the leather from time. They both have scattered oxidation and a couple very small spots of erosion. The leather body has no rips or tears and the stitching is sewn tightly. There are scattered scrapes and most of the finish is still intact. There is a marking on the locket that is hard to read, it looks like a letter over an "M" within a diamond. This bayonet and scabbard will be a great addition to your US / British WWI rifle, trench gun, or a bayonet collection in general.
