Marv's M7 is a Conetta.
Conetta did things a little different from everyone else...
I'm told that Conettas are among the harder to find variations of the M7. I got this one for Marv as a gift (because he didn't have a bayonet at all) and got it from ebay for like $35 because it had a cracked scabbard (he's replaced the body as you can see here). Intact M7 and M8A1 combinations were running about $75 so this seemed a good deal. It turned out to be a great deal because the Conetta name was running $100 for just the M7 at the time. There's one on GunBroker at the time of posting, no reserve, starting at $120 with a $225 buy-it-now.
And I gave it away...
