Hi there,
I am looking for good drawings and detailed photos of Vickers K gun to make a museum quality display gun for living history group. This will be mounted on ring as used in air force gunners training. Any help would be very appreciated.
Hi all! I'm looking at yet another Tunic, only this one is quite a bit more expensive than the others I've been buying lately ($4,000 asking price, pretty firm). It's an SS Tunic (obviously) with armband, cuff title, and ribbon bar; although the devices appear to be missing from the bar. Also, you can see in the photos some mold showing on the fabric (light colored splotches). How much (if at all) does this devalue the tunic, and how would you go about removing the mold? It doesn't appear to have damaged the fabric.
What do you experts think about this one? Also, what do you think about his price ($4,000)? Is this underpriced, overpriced, or about on par with what you guys are seeing out there?
Any help and opinions are greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

I have now started to get quite a large collection of deactivated weapons, missiles, bullets, helmets & bayonets and was wondering if anyone else has theres insured if so where do you get it, are you covered on your house insurance or do you have to take a seperate policy ?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hello Guys, heres another new bayonet to the collection.
It's a Czech vz23 or 24 made for Chile. The blade is opposite way round to the usual vz24. This one has matching numbers on the pommel, frog stud and what looks like a sun stamped on the crossguard and frog stud. I was told the sun type stamp is the mark for chile but cannot track it down anywere? If anyone knows anything about it i would be grateful. The picture of two bayonets is to compare the long version made for Persia against the shorter one for Chile.
Thanks, Paul.
For your viewing pleasure
