My current collection of SA/NSDAP related items. SA sports badge, Bronze M1929 Kepi Eagle SA/NSKK EM belt buckle The eagle and belt buckle have no markings, The sports badge is marked " E. Schneider, Lüdenscheid". However it seems the "L" has been cut off in the makring? The kepi eagle is golden/bronze in color but looks like it may have a silver finish. mostly worn off. two tabs one, broken. I say SA/NSKK belt because as I understand they wore the same belt buckle? -

A very nice blade. In answer to your question, I would say that uneven grinds are uncommon. While anything is possible the function of QA personnel was to detect and eliminate blades that did not meet standards. I can't see the blade edges in your photos well enough to comment on them but it would seem to me that post-factory amateur grinding or sharpening might be the culprit. HTH. Regards, Charlie -

Update, the newest addition to my collection, related to HJ items. A Christmas Gift to myself. An Enamel HJ shooting/marksmanship badge pin. I'm not sure if it's bronze or silver "level". it's hard to tell color. In pictures it looks bronze. IRL it looks silver... In any calse it's marked RZM M1/63 -

Thank you for the link... But my gun has a flat hard surface at the breach so there's no way to insert a bullet or anything. It just operates off of the bolt slamming into a cap at the breach. Much like the cap guns from back in the day.... Not so much as a blank firing cartridge as pictured in the link I guess my previous post was a little confusing. What I meant to say was there's nowhere to insert a cartridge If there's any confusion in my previous post, what I meant to say was there's nowhere to insert any cartridge, it's just a flat surface -

There is very little information available on this subject, so I apologize in advance for any inaccuracies. At this point, I believe this bullet was used in a training rifle. https://aucview.com/yahoo/g466351562/ -

Hey there, I'm hoping someone else has a bit more information on these as there's not much out there... I only know of one other one that a member on the gunbot Japanese forum has. They're pretty neat little rifles that don't shoot blanks but instead fire caps (like pictured).... Does anybody have information on what type of caps the Japanese would have used?.... thanks -

Cross-posted from USMF, An unique M1936 Musette Bag in my collection. Originally a wartime 1942 dated, Atlantic Products Corporation made, "rubberized"-type, Musette bag. Named to an officer, Captain T. A. Robertson. Then apparently sometime later I assume it was surplused as equipment to Israel where it was used as a Medic bag. Marked up with hand painted red Hebrew text, a red medical Star of David, and stamped with what I understand to an IDF property equipment mark. The the Hebrew letter "צ" in a circle. The bag came filled with a mix medic items including WWII era US and Canadian bandages, and Israel 1960's medical items. The carry strap is also WWII US surplus. A 1944 dated GP strap. For reference here is an IDF domestic pattern compass pouch, dated 1975. Note the same stamp.

They were also in Iraq, there to train Police. A good view of the Spanish Army Jump Wings, shows they do attend some Army courses -
