He was part of the 2nd armored division of hell on wheels, I know he was in Africa to start (story goes that he used to stand on the tanks to get pomegranates from the trees) and believe he covered most of europe thereafter. From what I know from research only, the 2nd armored division went...

That makes perfect sense, i am keeping my eye out now and learning just by looking through the listings/ads (so many makers and variations, rivets etc). Will check back before I make a purchase but if have any suggestions let me know. For now money is tight so will prob not be for a few months...

Terrific advice!!! I soaked in gun oil and was able to work it free and it now properly mounts to my g29/40 (this is the matching numbers one which I choose to keep). The frog being Italian, sorry for confusion, but do you think it is correct match for one of the bayonets? Also interesting to...

Screws Do the screws seems wrong or just in backwards? That seems odd to me (had to be taken apart at some point, likely during production or the war as I doubt my grandpa messed with it).

Better pictures Here are some better pictures of the second one. The numbers are in fact matching, but metal looks scraped a little different in the serial number section. There are no other Mark's. This was definitely sharpened post war. It does not mount on my g29/40 as it appears the clip is...

I have a choice between two bayonets and was hoping you could help me figure out which was the best match for my G 29 - 40 Mauser (if there even is a correct match), and the value if each (is one worth more or more desirable). The g29/40 and baayonets have different sources and doubt they were...

THank you! This is great information, and with that said will not be trying to find an oiler for the buttplate. THanks again!!

I am trying to figure out which oiler should be in my k43 ac (a block). I know there are steal and bakelite, and short versions but not sure how to figure out which one I need. This site had some good information: http://www.mp44.nl/equipment/rg34.htm Also, is it correct to assume that the...

I am not sure what you mean, what rifle? If you mean this one https://www.gunbroker.com/item/771190834 I did not purchase it - do you think that was a good price?

K43 magazine - gcb with three Waa? I have come across a few k43 magazines that had three waa marks (the normal two - one on top and one to the right of the gcb and inbetween the k43), and also seen some with an additional waa to the right of the k43. Are these both valid variations or an...

Waffen Mark on cleaning rod Thanks you both, this is very helpful. One other question, would a rod woth a waffen mark be incorrect (with no numbering)?

Wow no joke - so the ad on gunbroker (https://www.gunbroker.com/item/771041286) must have a fake numbered bolt carrier (5936a) unless he happened to find a matching bolt? Unbelievable.

I have been looking at some cleaning rods on ebay and on gunbroker for a K43 AC45 "A" block. Can someone please help and let me know what I should be on the lookout for to confirm it is authentic - are there supposed to be certain marks. From what I know it should be 12.5" and should be the...
