Hey, guys. My friend asked what I thought of this Heer buckle he saw and wanted to buy so I thought I'd check it out with you all. I don't have my Angolia book on me and I can't remember other Dr. F & Co. heer buckles I may have seen with which to compare this one to as far as the eagle, ears, catch, feet, etc. I think it was going for $75. Can anyone give my buddy and I am thumbs up or down on this one?
Thanks, all cool militaria
Best,

Here some pictures of some of the stuffs I still Have in storage in France.
G'Day All,
Here's a scary repro I obtained yesterday. I have it compered to my M42. Once aged, it could be a little tricky to pick!
Pointers to note on identifying this repro to a genuine one
- flick the grip with your finger and it should not have a hollow sound
-spring catch tension should be firm
I'm not a pro on US bayonets but thought I'd post this for reference :)
made by "Hermann Bauer, Schwäbisch, Gmünd."....enjoy,,,;)
HERE IS A NICE WW2 US GROUP $100 + $5.00 SHIPPING TO US
I just bought this soldbuch from WAF member REDVIPER--Thomas.
I have a few questions about it:
1) Why are the awards entered on page 22 out of order??? (dates are mixed) It KVKII 13-1-1941, Schutzwall Azbeichen 13-1-1941, Infanterie Sturmabzeichen in Silver 27-9-1944, Ost. Medal 31-8-1942, Wound badge in black sometime in 1942. This is the order they are written in in the soldbuch, why is it like this (dates are not in chronological order)?? I hope this doesn't mean its a replacement issue.
2) Same thing with page 21
3) Why is each stamp on the photo-cover doubled. Luckily, a plus is that the unit on the stamp matches the one inside the book, and the staples have made marks on the 1st page of the soldbuch. (which means that it has been with the book for a while)
I am almost 100% sure this is not a replacement issue, can any of you tell me your opinions?
If there is anything else that is wrong with it, please tell me.
Thanks,
Swayne Martin cool militaria
