Re: SS or SA Garmaschen?
Jay,
These would strap around a soldiers calf in the cavalry, for when he was on a horse. I have no idea if these are even Nazi related.
My grandfather who fought in ww1 in the cavalry wore ones similar to these.
Regards,
Finn

Re: SS or SA Garmaschen?
Hi Finn, yes I knew that they were used extensively in WWI, but they were also used in TR Germany. There entails the rub. Even if they were used by the SA or SS, they may very well have been manufactured far earlier than the 1930's.

Re: SS or SA Garmaschen?
Oh ok sorry you understand what it is,.. in that case you probably will have to see the interior before you purchase them.

Re: SS or SA Garmaschen?
No problem Finn. Yes, a peek at the inside or markings would be nice. Hopefully some of the sharper eyes here can help by looking at the photos.
Take care,
Jay
