German militaria

A mint late war, blue rucksack intended to be worn on the Y-straps. This rucksack is in very good condition and would be a very nice addition to any equipment collection. The rucksack is nicely marked 0/0378/0005 44 on the reverse. The leather is in good supple condition.

A rare pre war ammunition drum for the MG34 Zwillinglafette. These ammunition drums are often found with a late war modification on which the hooks for the Lafette connection are sawn off and the bare metal covered in tan paint. The drum is in very good condition with up to 50% of the original factory paint still present. The drum is nicely dated 1940.

Hard to upgrade mint late war breadbag. Nicely maker marked and dated 1944. The D-rings are painted blue which is a uncommon but typical late war feature. The buttons on the belt straps have never been attached, truly mint!

A nice early messkit marked AWF 40 indicating Alwin Wagner, Metallwarenfabrik. The first time I’ve seen this maker, a rare variant to encounter! The messkit retains up to 80% of its original field grey paint and is in very good condition and comes with a original supple strap.

Late war M31 messkit marked 0/0561/0138. It is very hard to find a RBNR marked messkit. This one comes with its original supple leather strap and 85% of the original paint remaining.

Beautiful mint unissued Luftwaffe goggles in its original factory box.

A nice early M31 messkit marked HRE41 indicating production by Heinrich Ritter, Esslingen. Still retaining up to 90% of its original factory paint, near mint!

A very nice late war mapcase named Lt. G. Schöbel.

Nice original award document for a Iron Cross second class to Stabsgefreiter Rudi Heller, Grenadier Regiment 980. Together with its original POW paperwork. Signed by Generalleutnant Bertram. Grenadier Regiment 980 was destroyed in Caen and most probably the EK2 was awarded due to actions in this area.

A very rare early Gebirgsjäger rucksack waist strap in good, unissued condition. This piece is virtually always missing from all Gebirgsjäger rucksacks and impossible to find as a spare. This is a very early example with a aluminum buckle which I’ve never seen before!

Nice original pre war belt in dark brown colour and a large size 100 fitting for most mannequins!

Textbook matching M42 messkit with 95% of its original red and olive factory paint.

Rare bakelite Luftwaffe morse training device. The Morseübungsgerät is in good condition and nicely marked A. Grote & Söhne G.m.b.H. Köln Zollstock – Morseübungsgerät MÜG 3. The device was used with two headphones and morse keys. The instructor would send a message in Morse and the student would receive and note the message. A nice short introduction to the Morseübungsgerät can be found here.
