I received a flyer for an upcoming auction this week and saw something that members might find desirable. I'm not sure if I would be in violation if I posted a "heads up" in the forums? I have no connection to the piece or the auction house. Thoughts please?

Any thoughts on the origin of this sling? I can't remember where it came from and just re-found it. Resembles the k98k style but seems a somewhat crude copy.

Trolling the Sportsmans Guide online catalog today. Came across a listing for " Austrian surplus plastic cartridge boxes". Sure look like plastic RG34 cleaning kit boxes to me. Of course I can't find the listing now to post an image.

My 1918 Erfurt. I got it out of Amoskeag a number of years ago. I don't remember if it came from the CB collection or not. Perhaps Peter S. will chime in. I'm not sure what the B on the stock is about. I actually just noticed the sight base and receiver ring bear the EP'ed inscription Dr...

This just crossed my feed on Fakebook. I thought it was worth sharing for obvious reasons.

Serial and suffix on my 1937 S -147. Can anyone make the suffix? I can't tell if it's an h or a k. Thanks, Sexton.

Still getting the hang of posting photos. I know these aren't great. My first K98k, 20 years hence. When I picked it up, the hand guard and stock above the unterband was missing, as was the band itself and the bayo mount. Bubba had done this thing with the uberband and a portion of the band...

Trying to get the hang of posting photos. Here's my BCD 43 sporter rescue.

As always please delete if prohibited. This just showed up in a parachute group I follow on Faceplant. Panel (I believe an "A" panel) on a parachute bearing the inspectors stamps. Looks pretty minty for 1936. What say all, real or repro?

Gentlemen , I were to go looking for a correct bayo for my 1937 Sauer, what codes would I be looking for? tia, b.

I posted (positive) feedback for a transaction with Mowzerluvr but its not showing anywhere?

I hope I did this correctly. A man walked into the repair shop were I work, handed me a picture frame and said "here, I know your into this crap".

I don't know anything about P-38's. A friend who knows even less came by yesterday to ask about his. He's in his late 60's, gun is an AC 40 handed down from his Dad, who took it apart so any kid playing with it wouldn't hurt anybody. The problem being the unloaded gun will "fire" with the...

Gentlemen, Is there any truth to a statement I heard that different manufacturers were assigned to specific groups or units? I came across this 147 code at a show a while ago. All numbers match, bluing isn't bad, wood was a little dry. The only thing that bothered me was the upper...

Just brought this home. 1918 Prussian Pioneer Battalion Pickelhaube. From the collection of our friend Wapruf 2.

Found a BYF44 at a LGS offered as a bolt-mismatch-otherwise-correct rifle. The briefest of look overs told me it had been re-barreled and the original SN had been applied. I also noticed the barrel step was well forward of the upper band, indicating a shortened stock. I seem to recall...
