Polish Pare badge and Pin authenticity

I am not sure whether this belongs here or not…. Please move if not appropriate.
I have posted this here on a suggestion from a member of the British Army Badge Forum on the chance that you provide an answer.
Apart from the securing nut and the ‘eagle wreath/pin’ badge the main badge was apparently damaged and I have had a lot of problems trying to get it fixed. However……..
I did try to do a swap of this with someone and was very surprised when he expressed an opinion that ‘the badge’ was not the real thing and may be a copy of an original….?

The main part of the badge is named to ‘TOBIE OJLZYZNO’ - unfortunately when I left Hamburg, like an idiot, I left my notes behind, so this name may not be 100% correct. The number also appears to be ‘1393′(?).

The pin/wreath badge is unmarked.

The securing nut is unmarked on either side.

The (detached) wreath and attaching ‘pad’ - has a mix of characters (to me, at least…) which appear to be ‘a07?’.

From memory, he also didn’t like the stamping impression.

The only problem I have, is that this was bought from a well established UK based dealer, who is (apparently) a member of the BABF.
Bearing in mind various negative comments made about some of the other items that I believed were genuine (from the same person) and have now turned out to be fakes, I am not exactly sure whether this falls into the same category or not?

Can anyone either vouch as to whether this is a fake/forgery/genuine - or help in any way. I could get it fixed but I am not sure whether its cost effective in doing so, and whether it should be scrapped or, sent back for a refund - which I am reluctant to do as someone else will get screwed over.

I would be grateful for any comments about this badge.

Many thanks and rgds, David

“Best of the German” display

Hey guys,

This is the top of my dresser in my room. I have some of my favorite German militaria on top of it for display. This is just a fraction of my collection, but the cream of the crop in my opinion. cool militaria

Here’s the rundown on this display:

Q64 single decal Heer M40, a no-decal ET68 M40 with a net, (The only original thing about this helmet is the shell. I refurbed the previously poorly painted shell myself.) a salty Heer EM/NCO’s private purchase signals visor cap, a 1938 Gebruder (Kugel & Fink?) Ludenscheid Heer buckle with 1938 dated tab, found on a political belt, unmarked 25-year service medal, ostfront medal, and mutterkreuz in bronze, matching fnj42 K98 bayonet, Heer breast eagle, unmarked minesweeper badge, pair of police meister shoulder boards, and a couple of fake silver wound badges for fillers.

For some reason or another, I don’t have any real wound badges in my collection. I’m waiting for a nice cased silver ‘30′ that I can afford.

Enjoy!

Which type of Pulsation Dampeners should we use in oilfield.

Many companies are offering a range of Drilling and Production Pulsation Dampeners that are unique in design and construction..The bodies for both styles are of single piece construction which eliminates the possibility of weld failures in the field. The charging valve for both the Drilling Dampener and the Production Dampener are protected by heavy duty impact resistant protective covers.
Following are some features of both type of Pulsation Dampeners.
Drilling Pulsation Dampener

1 Single piece construction with no girth welds.
2 Diaphragm equipped with stabilizer to eliminate possible folding and entrapment of fluids resulting in increased diaphragm life.

Production Pulsation Dampener

1 Short, compact design requires no external bracing or other support structures.
2 Standard applications include waste disposal, salt water injection, caustic products and other corrosive liquids.

New here. Just picked up my first helmet M35 Police. Thoughts?

Hey guys. I am new here. Picked up my first helmet. I believe (from what I researched on this site and a few other informative sites on the net) that this is an M1935 Police helmet. Stamped on the inside is ET64 and 4783 in the back. Chin strap is marked Schiele Loburg 1937. Did I make out ok or did I get taken?

Thanks in advance,
-Matt
