I just recently bought this little gem because it was nicer than the one in my collection. To be honest I havn't seen a rifle this clean of this vintage in probably ten years. I hope you enjoy it.

I've rearranged my loft recently and have located a couple of interesting relics again. These were originally found 10 years ago and I thought you might like to see them. Perhaps you can help to identify them?

The first is some sort of armoured vehicle control column/hand brake?, it still retains much of the original white paint. I always believe it came from a German vehicle being white painted, but preparing it today to photograh I noticed it has a serial number GM 6011 4
followed by possible 3. Does GM mean General Motors?
This was found within 100m of the recently identified Stug (gun sight) hatch posted previously.

i came across a book online the other day called 'The Fate of Hitler'.
i will be buying the book asap but in between time has anyone read it? what are peoples thoughts on what is being said in the book? The notes i read about the book were suggesting he may have even got away, and that the 'suicide' story is not true!
what do you people think?

Any opinions good or bad on these badges would be appreciated. The silver badge has no hallmark. The bronze version is maker marked but the metal is actually pliable enough to bend. The bronze medal is smaller and has less detail in the eagle & talons. Is the bronze version the "Pigeon Head" I've heard collector's refer to ? Highly suspect ? I'm here to learn and take notes so fire away. thanks, Al.

Hi Guys, if I am offline for a while, don't wonder why. I have just bought a new PC today. So tomorrow will see me setting it all up and this may take a while. I have gone for a HP with a large 22 inch screen with touch screen technology. So I will also have to come to terms with Windows Vista. :eek:

My trusty Sony Vaio has served me well for 7 years now and it has never ever been in for repair. But it has now started to slow down and one of the fans needs replacing so I am going to try and get it repaired and pass it onto my Mum and Dad and get them online.

Cheers, Ade.
