The only reason the blade is horizontal is because that is a system that is adapted to allow the use of standard bayonets.
The L85 bayonet is the standard bayonet for UK forces, so obviously doesn't need adapting.
If one is an assigned grenadier with an M203, not really sure why that person is bothering to fix bayonets in the first place though.
THe L85 Bayonet is a fail abortion that for some reason the MoD decided to keep because "British Things." That's evidence of the retardation of the British Military-Industrial Complex.
