M1842 bayonet

[RSMorris]

Does anyone have a pic or two of the bayonet that would have been used on a Harper's Ferry M1842 dated 1855? I want to make sure I get the correct one.

You know from looking around most of the text I see refers to M1842's that been rifled. Would that be a different bayonet from the smoothbore?
