Brazil—FN FAL IMBEL Type C Bayonet & Scabbard

This Brazilian Type C Bayonet is a later example, with the M1965 spring catch.
This example is unmarked, with a black paint finish overall. The scabbard has a
plastic body, with an integral cotton web belt hanger. The throatpiece is positioned
so the socket faces outward. The belt hanger incorporates the U.S. M1910-style
wire belt hanger.

The snap fastener on the belt hanger is marked "Eberle." Eberle S.A. is a
Brazilian firm that manufactures, among other things, textile fasteners.
The identification of this bayonet as having been made by IMBEL is based on the
identification of the belt hanger's fasteners.
IMBEL is an abbreviation for Industry Material Bélico do Brasil (Military Material
Industry of Brasil), the State arms factory formerly known as Fabrica de Itajuba (FI).
