TMZ reports that bayonet makers are none too happy with President Obama today.
According to the official U.S. Marine Corps website, every Marine is STILL required to complete a bayonet training program … because “the weapon becomes just as effective [as a rifle] in close combat situations.”
We spoke with Dan Riker from Bayonet Inc. — a leading military surplus outlet that specializes in bayonets — who tells us he believes Obama’s comment was “ignorant … because our soldiers still use bayonets.”
He adds, “[Bayonets] are still distributed to the military all the time — he should get educated on it”
For the record, Riker says he won’t be voting for Obama … “and I didn’t vote for him last election either.”
More: So it turns out that we probably have more bayonets now than we did in 1916. Obama — fail!
