Helmet Identification

Hello,

Is there anyone able to tell me what kind of helmet this is. Looks like an early reissued WW1 pot but what about the NSDAP insignia? Police? Fire Department? early SS?


please help with king tiger question

hallo all
I am looking for an expert advice or help on the following

I have a model of a prebuilt DRAGON King Tiger tank 1/35 scale
item n.61030 pz.abt.506 ardennes 1945

This is an HENSCHEL production version of a command tank with zimmerit and star antenna at the back

On its turret the numerals 101 are placed as 1+01 in black with white outlines

someone said to me that this tank is possibly incorrectly numbered for a command tank/tank of the pz.abt.506

Is this true?
is this tank accurate for paint scheme/markings/numbering for the time period/place of operations it supposed to depict?

thanks very much for helping me!

regards
stefano

N.S.F.K. Dagger ( Cebr. Heller)

Guys, this is a dagger I received from a veteran in my area back in the late 70's. Included is a pic I took of the group received from him at that time. Regards, Hal PS; Sorry for the poor quality of the group pic as this was taken in B&W with a film camera but thought you'd like to see it . - The first pic shows the true color of the leather.

WTB: Deactivated Mg42/53

I know this ain't a wanted section but the thread goes with what the section is about. Looking for a Deactivated Mg42/53. I need one that would be able to be shipped to the USA, so the receiver needs to be cut into 3/4 pieces. If you have any please send me a email at
boblee89@yahoo.com
