Hi guys,

i was searching for a few years to add this variant with partial wing into my collection.

This type is not often to find and so it´s nice for me to close a little gap in my collection.

Regards
Joe

Greetings
Im just curious, I recently posted a joke in the community forum & unless Im mistaken it seems to have dissapeared from both the thread and doesnt even show up in my activity. I just wondered why this was?

Have a good weekend

Hi Guys!

I recently bought this ‘Russian Front Relic’ with no identification from the seller other than that location.
After some research, I think it is a JU88 Engine Cowling Latch, (from one fitted with Jumo 211 Engines).
I’ve found a near identical item on your Forums, (which was a great help thankyou), but noticed my latch has no stamped numbering or other markings.
Also I found it intriguing the paintwork still has AUF/ZU clearly marked and the fact that a Tan camo paint has been applied over the Duck egg Blue under body colour?
Please can you shed any light on this Relic as any details would be greatly appreciated.

It’s that time of year again–post your acquisitions of 2017.

Feel free to post any German soft headgear whether from the Kaiserreich (Imperial) era;
Weimar; Third Reich; DDR or even BRD (& post as many hats as you would like).

I am guessing this is a fake. Not happy with the tabs on the sternchen or the 2 tresses that run across the tab - they don’t look like anything I have seen on here before anyway! Any opinions appreciated. Buckram too close a weave?

Hi guys , I been having a lot of fun scouring your various threads and posts on these seemingly widely used grenades.
I haven’t been able to get a firm identification of this one. I know you guys can help: )

It is marked A 2 and a 91 (or 16) The fuse is only stenciled and not stamped. And unfortunately very faded. I was leaning towards an M10 of some sort but not sure of that at all.

Here are some pics

Any help is appreciated. Sean
