Thank you Paul.

Cheers!

Thank you very much Mark cool militaria

Thank you both. So it's "just" the Oak leaf pattern. On the pics it looked different to me :)

Regards, Lars

To me the vent hole looks odd but maybe it's just the pic? Looks very big for a M40/

Hello Gents.

I am up north at my homestead so not much time for collecting the last many months....

I am confident someone can help with what type of camouflage pattern is seen in the 2...

No problem. I bought mine for 6000-8000 Rubles for 1 :)

Cheers

I can't tell about the helmet but i am sure the star is a 1990's reproduction. That is not a bad thing as they themselves are very hard/impossible to find. I have had a few of them and they are not...

Doug i am aware that dug helmets are a totally different matter. I have close to no experience in the decal field but i am pretty good at spotting fake dug helmets even i have no knowledge on decals...

To answer Doug's question, Karel Gott is a digger from Karelia. He have one of the most visited digging threads here on WRF. Not hard to find :) He have dug a lot of WSS helmets but it have obviously...

Sorry Carl i am not trying to acts a "denier or filth spouter" as you wrote but how do you fit +150 people into a 4X4 m room? I just could not help thinking about the math behind this.

Cheers!

It would be nice with pics in higher resolution instead of one big "group" pic :) The stitching of the white disc should be quite uneven. Maybe why you ask if it's home made? I had a few of these and...

No problem:) If you want to remove rust use acetone and automatic transmission oil at a 50/50 mix rate. This will remove everything:) Take care with these things!

Cheers!

It's not that sad. If i needed a deactivated device like that, then i would throw the part you have in a tin can and then put the tin can in a fire. Like a camp fire type of ting. I would leave it...

No. The detonator itself have been removed. That is why you can see threading on the device. However there's a black powder charge in the top part.
Cheers!

No it's not safe :) It looks like the detonator itself have been removed but there is a black powder charge inside this part. ALWAYS treat such objects a Not Safe!
Cheers!

Nice one Andy. Where will they be buried?

Cheers!

All i can help with is that i know the Germans used a yellow primer on vehicles and other things. Maybe they also used this primer on some helmets?

Cheers!

Very nice. Do you have pics Kradman?

Cheers!

Thanks Jerry mate cool militaria (Always there when i need you :) )

Cheers!

Just a fast question here gents:)

Was the DAK/Tropical pith helmet ever used outside of Africa and If so where?

Thank you for your timecool militaria

Cheers!

Much more. Here we are all more or less nerds LOL. This Finnish Compass thread have already 2 pages:)

Cheers!

Nice compass Hp. I like the notches instead of the rifle sight style. The way you used a pencil in your video to turn the dial was pretty cool :) I even have some German WW2 pencils i can use in my...

Some good and interesting additional info and nice to see you here "Pop" :) I will try and contact SUUNTO and see if they are willing to cough up some info on my compass. Let's see:)

Cheers!

It's very understandable Totaali:) Thank you for your time friend.

Cheers!

Thanks Totaali :) Some good info indeed! So it's possible my compass is prewar if i understand correctly? Interesting design on yours. I like the "rifled" look.

Cheers!
