    I’m not sure if this qualifies for this thread or not, but when I found this in my neighbors attic I felt as if I found the actual holy grail.

    Got an adrenaline rush like you wouldn’t believe!

    It changes every time I acquire my last Holy Grail! LoL

    My next HG will be an issued and worn KC with a nicely used neck ribbon. It should look just like this....now...just to find one

    My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them

    The list could go on and on... but for right now if I could find it, is a simple M42 beaded luftschutz with a decal. been looking forever to find one.

    The question is not so easy to answer. I own different holy grails for example the M42 Ventless, Shells size 70 and higher, MK in the 1933 version or the M16 First pattern. My personly biggest holy grail is the 1940 dated UDF MK2 in used condition. For the future a complete british Paratrooper helmet is the Passion for me and I will Never give up until I found one

    Be interested to know if there is many still around. The Graf Spee eagle is still around is it not? What actually would be a good price for a Stg 44 or say an MP40? On another thread I saw one for $30,000 USD!

    Just some side info, Elmers parents must have been Swedish.
    Elmer Rognander Lundgren sounds 100 percent like a Swedish name to me.

    Great items!
