For sale: Bodenzünder für 10,5cm Panzergranate- BdZ f 10,5cm Pzgr. Base Fuze for 105mm AP

Hi guys,

Not all that often are Panzergranate complete with their base fuzes, so here's your chance to complete that 10,5cm Pzgr. that's been sitting on your shelf just waiting for its fuze :D

The exterior surfaces are a bit pitted, but all the markings are clear, and the interior surfaces are quite clean; all the internal components are present and it even has its tracer cup. Of course the piece is completely inert with no chemical components.

Medic’s Bag

Guys,

Check this bag out, it is a style that I am not familiar with. A friend is asking me about it as he has aquired a small lot of them. The are not like the typical wartime bag, nor is it like the late cold war era bag either. There is a hand annotation on the inside in blue ink and what is clearly a 1962 date. Any help translating this penned text is appreciated.

Is this a wartime bag or is it an early to mid coldwar era item?

No 68 restoration project.

Hello,
I've been working to try and save a relic No 68, (training), relic from corroding away even more. I know the colour is wrong and it's a bit rough and ready but I needed to check that the materials used were compatible. The final finishing and correct painting can be done later. I don't know if this is the correct place to put it, but there are more details on BOCN under 'restoration and renovation'.
The materials used were Plastic metal, Araldite, for sealing the Plastic metal, aluminium paint primer, and xylene based car body spray. All seems pretty strong so hopefully I will be able to finish it in the near future. I will add the last three pictures next.
Best regards,
navyman.
