Minensucher Miniature

Saw this on a dealer’s site, I have little experience with war time charm style miniatures and would appreciate opinions on this one. How common were these types of minis during the war, you don’t seem to see them that often?

Dont know much about it but for 499.00 if it shoots good I will be a happy camper.Looks all ww2 parts,stock matches finish cond.Some SA parts, but been on there a long time.Probably rebuilt post war as most were,finish looks original ww2 to me as markings are pretty crisp.No import marks and bore is nice.Small gunshop pick up,almost tore my pants pocket getting my wallet out.

New Navy Factory/Arsenal Workers Cap

Cap never had a sewn insignia & there’s oxidation under insignia prong indicating it’s been on cap. Clearly navy style field cap. Insignia is nicely detailed 2 dimensional brass. I had seen a period photo of Japanese factory/arsenal workers sitting behind tables wearing caps with same insignia. I think aviation related. Photo was posted on one of the FB groups. If anyone has seen photo or can provide a link to it I’d greatly appreciate it! My cap has had a leather oval added as a backing. No markings or stamps anywhere.

*Help* German police/fire helmet

So I bought this helmet from a ww2 auction which was said to be authentic. I was wondering if you guys could help me out by giving me more information about it and if it’s even authentic. Thank you for all the answers in advance :)

Need help! Would appreciate help on this hat ( LUFTWAFFE flight mechanic hats )

Hello,

I would like to have your input on this hat.

From what I can tell the eagle looks correct and so does the liner. I’m just hung up on the black fabric.
