Reichterstohffen expo is anybody coming?

Goodmorning Gents,

End of thise month there will be the Reichterstohffen ( I hope is spelled rith) expo near Munich Germany, is anybody attending to it?

Sorry for posting here I could not find the correct section

Question reputable dealers

I have a list saved in my history tool bar of online dealers in the United States who have some very nice stuff for sale but don’t know how reputable they are or how to check their past customer sales.Could someone give me some recommendations? If you can’t or would rather not reply to this could you send me a PM so i can see if it is someone who is already on my list or add to my list. I have not purchased online yet but would soon like to try it out. Thanks again.

USAAF C1 Vest Emergency Sustenance

G’day All

Here’s one for you - It’s had the rear tapes changed to a full back (common modification). And a pair of packeted goggles.
Items for this set are rare and very expensive.
I’ve had this one since 04 and just discovered this reel of thread in a pocket!!!!! :D

Make that two reels:D

New to forum with new to me SD M40

Greetings,

I have been lurking here for a while, time to get involved. Excuse the cell phone photos…

First up is a new to me SD M40 (Q62 lot#DK337), liner band is intact, leather long gone. Band is too tight for me to see what the date is. Chinstrap with faint RBN# is present. The decal is my issue. I cannot tell if it is a toned heer or KM decal. Opinions would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Restoring a M35

Hello Gents. I’m restoring a M35 relic condition helmet. Originally i wanted to do a M42, but for now it will be this one. I have a few questions though i hope you can help me with.

- Is it possible to buy new vent rivets? They are not in the best condition.
- I will make a "East Front camo" helmet. What will be the right choice of color for the base layer? Feldgrau No.2 or other? I will give the base layer structure with aluminum oxide.
- I could also need some help with the camo colors. Is it a "free for all" or is there some standard colors for this. I hope to get some names, then i will find the RAL numbers myself.

Here is some pics of the very beginning. I will update as often as i can. There is quite a lot of filler on the helmet, but this filler is fast reacting. I only have about 3-4 minutes to work with it. Lots of sanding to do.

Now it just needs a good coat of paint :D
