MG.15 gunners pouch used on an aircraft.

This is a mg.15 gunners pouch containing extraction tools, oilers and spare parts for the gun such as firing pins. All the parts are really well stamped. This kit is in really clean condition and appears to be complete.

Sorry if in the wrong place but, wanted to thank those for the recent Likes but I cant get reply to work.

Hi Ade, Paul et el, sorry about posting this here but I wanted to thank those who recently gave me a like in a few threads but I cant reply to them. Martin bull for one who is a great Gent from another site.

Im in and out this month due to volunteering but also wanted to mention to you guys that while doing this volunteering, ive met a lot of Vets-most are WWII vets. These include: a 3 war Vet-an American who served in China under Gen Claire Chennault, as well as in WWII, and Korea, another Vet who was in the first group of men who made up the US Navies first Sea Bees detachment, and another Gent who served in the British "Red Devils" and now lives here in Corpus Christi.

Volunteering certainly had many benefits, ive also been reunited with two friends-one I have not seen in at least 30 years, and another I have not seen in 16 years.

Is is possible to change username?

Hi, sorry, this may have been asked before but I was just wondering if it were possible to change my username? When I joined the forum in September I didn’t intend to become a regular member so my username wasn’t entirely as I’d liked… :D any ideas?
Thanks,
Robbie

SS Buckle - Fake?

A friend has this buckle in his possession and wants to know if it’s good or not. I have seen some "late war zinc" buckles, but cannot make up my mind about this one. Please have a look and tell me what you think of this buckle. Seems to have been ground dug. Thank you for your help.

Trying to learn

Hi guys

Have been reading through pages of details on helmets and am amazed at the knowledge and quality of some of the fakes. I do have a few helmets I have picked up along the way in life and will post some when at home.

Whilst trying to teach myself some of what I have been reading on here I saw this helmet on Ebay

eBay - The UK’s Online Marketplace

And was trying to guage it. My view was the liner looks to red, wear on wire looked not hard enough etc.

I would love to hear thoughts of the experts on here so I can continue my education!

Many thanks in advance

Steve

Germen ribbons. Real?

Your opinion? Only picture I have seen it. Not mine. If real I’ll buy
I’m still a beginner on the subject.
Thanks for your help and patience. :)
