A rare ammunition pouch marked RME 43. This pouch did not come from the hoard find of G43 / K43 pouches that flooded the market. Original G43 pouches that do not come from the Ukranian army stock are rare! The pouch is in very good condition and would be very hard to upgrade!

Waffen-SS reversible Erbsentarn mittens which should have been issued with the parka and trousers (Winteranzug),unfortunately this is not a matching set and both mittens are intended for the right side! These mittens are reversible to the white side and to the Erbsentarn camouflaged side. The mittens are in unissued condition but show some damage and traces from storage over the years. Hard to find pair!

A very nice pre war M31 messkit marked RZM M6/1/39. The messkit still retains up to 90% of its original field grey paint. These RZM quality messkits where issue to all sorts of political organizations. This short M31 model is a typical military messkit. This M31 messkit was most probably made and used by the Waffen-SS. The usual prewar political models for the Hitlerjugend, Allgemeine-SS and SA where finished in a black paint and are of the large M1910 model. This one, being a short military model produced in Feldgrau was most probably produced and used by the Waffen-SS.

Extremely rare pre war MG34 barrel changing kit in good used condition. This example is nicely marked BSW 1938 which is the earliest dated example I have ever encountered! Very rare item!

When firing the MG34 and MG42 continuously the German soldiers where presented with a harsh and difficult task: changing the barrel. The MG34 and MG42 where both made with a quick-change barrel and to help in the changing of the barrel these gloves where invented and issued. These gloves where issued with the accessories of the MG34 and MG42. It is simply used by placing the hand under the strap and using the pad to cover your hand when you grab the hot, sometimes even glowing barrel. The barrel is then placed in the Laufschützer to cool down and a cool new barrel is inserted. According to regulations, the barrel had to be changed after 150 rounds fired continuously.

Excellent and rare highlight pencils or Krokier-stifte by J.S. Staedtler in very good condition. These sets of pencils were very popular among officers and NCO’s and other troops which worked with maps. Easy to keep with you and perfect to clarify and mark maps! The cardboard case is still in good, undamaged condition and the labels are still nicely readable. The label on the back clearly reads: “J.S. Staedtler’s neue tasche mit Krokierstiften für den Feldgebrauch“. Belongs in any map-case collection!
