      Very much AI, but I think it's supposed to be German... Terrible though.    Wade

      Hello to everyone :))   This is my Reichswehr parade bayonet manufactured by Carl Eichhorn. I am sure, you all are more knowledgeable than me, but from what I've read, this Eichhorn mark was only used for a short amount of time in the mid 1920s. The pusher does work, but it is in an overall rough condition... but I will let the pictures do the talking :)) I am planning on selling the bayonet to get some money for my main collecting field (which is the Vietnam War), but I will have to wait before I can post it in the FS section as posting there requires a number of previous posts on the forum as you all know  20260215_171010.heic 20260215_171018.heic 20260215_171102.heic 20260215_171117.heic 20260215_171110.heic 20260215_171137.heic 20260215_171202.heic 20260215_171204.heic

      For my first post on this forum, I would like to show you my 1960s ROKMC Duckhunter shirt with shortened sleeves. It is in superb condition and the main reason why I acquired it was, that I wanted kind of a representative piece for camouflage in the Vietnam War as at times US troops used the Korean uniforms as well :)) So here goes: The shirt has no markings aside from the ROKMC emblem 20260220_121755.heic Apparently, the main picture was too big, so here is the rest haha 20260220_121757.heic 20260220_121809.heic 20260220_121802.heic 20260220_121816.heic 20260220_121828.heic

      Hi all, I would like to share this Ostmedaille (Winterschlacht im Osten 1941/42) and would appreciate your opinions regarding originality and production characteristics. Details: Diameter: approx. 36 mm Weight: 21 grams Material: appears to be zinc Ring: unmarked Finish: typical late-war zinc patina with loss of original wash Ribbon: period ribbon The medal shows honest age and wear consistent with zinc examples. Based on the weight and surface characteristics, I believe it to be a later war production piece. I would welcome any comments regarding possible maker attribution or variant identification. If additional close-up photos are needed, I am happy to provide them. Thank you in advance for your time and expertise. Best regards, Michael

      57 in this case is the size, if you have a  picture about all the internal stamp we can try to find more info.

      To specify what I meant: Bulgarian/Hungarian, Spanish and Chinese helmets looked like the German Stahlhelm, but they looked NOTHING like the helmets in the picture. They are deformed and look like a mixture of different helmet types

      While there is something off in the photo, taken at face value, I would say Hungarian. The ammo pouches look like M95 pouches and the uniforms look to possibly be Hungarian as well. I think the weird cut out helmet may have what is supposed to be a Hungarian tri color shield decal on it. Just my two cents.   Scott

    • 2CanSam
      Thanks... It must just be the lighting. It's all gold though

      Hello everybody.    Many years ago my brother got a pouch exactly like this for organizing his boy scout gear and such. I've been looking into it and now realize it's a military item. I've seen it advertised online as a Czech M24 ammo pouch but I don't know what gun this would be to as I have not found the M24 rifle this goes to. I'm seeing the M24 sniper rifle but it seems to not have a mag that is NEARLY long enough to fit in this.    Does anybody know what rifle this goes to, what years it was used, and just any other specs about it I suppose?   Thanks!   Wade
