    Red 9

    Not sure I've ever posted this on K98, but since Red 9's have been brought up recently, why not. This is the one example of Imperial Mauser I own. I know nothing about these, but it doesn't appear to be post war molested/modified. No markings that would indicate rebuild to me. Thanks for looking

    M18 helmet for review

    Pre apologize for being a knowledge user, but, I've got this here M18 helmet. Basically it was a trade locally for some stuff I didn't want for something I liked and could look at on my shelf. I'm curious if any helmet guys can ID the chinstrap as fake or original. Personally I like everything...

    Pic Diary of 291st Division in the East

    I've found this extremely interesting. Photo diary of 291 Div, mostly IR506. Of note, the pics from Volchov Forest in June 42 are sickening. Human suffering at it's worst. Also of note is lots of SS camo on army guys. I found it interesting the reverse of the 'Hell' sign is a note from the 17th...

    Guys, I'm the luckiest guy ever. Story of why and how will follow later. It'll take about a week, but you're looking at a full provenance 87th Infantry 10th Mountain Div helmet from 1945. This will be one of the best 10th mountain lots to have come out in a long time. This has all rosters, WIA...

    Found a NOS byf44 in g block laminate not duffle cut. Unnumbered stamped/welded rear band and unnumbered bolt release? I could see this in L block but g? Does this sound right?

    Bayonet ID please

    Not sure what I've got here. Cut like typical 84/98 but no marks. 883 WaA only plus serial on guard, one WaA88 maybe. Bluing on blade is almost purple.

    Gew 88 98 ammo

    Without reloading, what factory ammunition is considered most appropriate for a G88/98? I've been told that S/B and Prvi both make a .318 NON rimmed js. I can't find it anywhere. Any input is greatly appreciated.

    Erfurt Kar98

    Another recent pickup. Is the eagle6 S from the rebuild, and what are the crown N on stock and marks on butt plate? Just took it apart and it's duffle cut. Oh well. Also, 100% matching.

    1891 Loewe

    New as of yesterday along with an 18 Erfurt Kar98 that I will photo later. No import marks, and very clean and matching for a Turk rifle. The ugliest feature is the exterior barrel I'm assuming from moisture getting into the barrel jacket. Bore and chamber look factory new. This rifle came apart...

    Kkw

    I've found a KKW for $400 that has unfortunately been duffle cut and the forward band and forward of the cut wood are missing. Condition is 90%. Is it even worth it in parts? I'm sure it's worth it as a plinker with some history, but I've got some DSM's and plenty of Winchesters, so plinker's...

    g date luger price request

    I've got a 85-90% g date luger with matching mag (extra mag with +) that I'm looking at buying. I understand there's a thousand variables but I'm curious in general what would be a price range.
