I've never seen an M-16A1 or A2 that could mount a bayonet. (OK, technically, that's wrong -- you can do it, but you DEFINITELY had better NOT fire a grenade with the bayonet mounted, as it sticks down in front of the M-203s barrel.) As far as the SAW -- the Minimi can still be gotten by the buying country with the ability to mount a bayonet. Consequently, early LRIP versions of the M-249 could mount a bayonet. Very few were actually made like that, though.
