Early US M1 fixed bale helmet with heat stamp 54A indicating production mid 1941. The helmet retains up to 90% of its factory finish with a period overpainted Corporal rank in the front which can be seen peaking through the paint. The helmet retains its Seaman liner. Attractive and early US M1 helmet in very good condition!

Excellent late war (1944) tool pouch for the MG34 and MG42 machine gun or Maschinengewehr. The tan coloured tool pouch is in used condition and undamaged, complete with all the internal fittings which is hard to find. The tool pouch is constructed out of tan coloured Pressstoff. Interesting is the combination of stitching and riveting used in the production of applying the leather parts. The pouch is marked on the inside of the closing flap gut 4 which indicates production by Walter Schuermann u. Co., Lederwarenfabrik, Bielefeld in 1944. Stunning late war tan coloured MG tan pouch in the condition that you want for this type of equipment, slightly used but in good condition!

Rare late war MP38 u. MP40 magazine pouch in good, lightly used condition. NOT to be confused with the commonly found tan CLG marked pouches; this is a rare late war variant with the textbook red line in the fabric. The pouch is in good, used condition and would be hard to upgrade!

Mint condition, most likely unissued reversible Sumpftarn parka trousers or Wendehose suspenders. Textbook reversible example which would be a perfect addition to a set of reversible Sumpftarn parka trousers!

A very nice Hard to upgrade matching bayonet marked 42 cqh indicating production by Clemen und Jung,Solingen. Bayonets marked cqh are only seldom encountered and very rare!The bayonet is in very good uncleaned, unsharpened and matching (!) condition with 85% of its factory blueing. The bayonet is matching to its scabbard with the serial 3366 a and has nice clean bakelite grips and is in unissued condition with only some storage patina.

Excellent “tropical” M31 canteen with webbing straps. The aluminium flask itself and the cover are both nicely marked W.W.E. 41 which indicates production by W. Wagner GmbH, Esslingen in 1941. This is one of the rarer makers to encounter when you collect canteens! The cup is  MPD coded F7/K which indicates production by a still unknown maker and the usage of urea resin (which is a certain type of Bakelite) with an organic filler material. Stunning M31 canteen in very good condition by a rare maker!

“tropical” M31 1L canteen or Labeflasche with webbing straps in slightly used condition. The flask itself is nicely marked ESB 42 which indicates production by Eduard Sommerfeld, Berlin in 1942. Unusual but for sure original is the unmarked aluminium small 10cl canteen cup which was mainly seen on pre war medical canteens but can be encountered on all types of canteens throughout the war. These cups have been found on ESB canteens multiple times. Interesting canteen with a nice cup!

textbook late war construction canteen in hard used condition. The steel red painted flap itself is unmarked and the strap consists of Mixed leather in a late war two-piece construction and buckle without a roller. typical late war gabardine (smooth cloth) cover with the reduced 3 press studs. The cup is nicely marked with the 3 letter code gfc which indicates production by Julius Posselt, Gablonz an der Neisse, Reichsgau Sudetenland. The cup is MPD marked with the material S which indicates the usage of Phenolic resin (bakelite) with sawdust as the filler material.

Nice M40 pattern Heer breadbag in good used condition with an interesting mixture of leather sorts. This specific pattern constructed out of the light green fabric together with the leather reinforcements around the belt loops was only produced for a short period in 1940. The breadbag is nicely dated 1940, probably produced by Roymann & Co. but the stamp is not clearly readable. Nice and interesting M40 pattern breadbag in good condition!

Clear mapcase insert in good used condition. These where issued with map cases and used to keep maps dry in the rain and folded on the right place. These where also used to draw on to the smooth transparent surface to keep the maps unmarked. This example is nicely marked R. Erhardt, Poessneck 1936.

A very nice late war P38 soft shell holster. The holster is nicely maker marked 0/0833/0007 indicating production by Hans Römer, Neu-Ulm. Simply a superb late war P38 holster in mint condition, can not be upgraded!

Nice set of 2 matching equipment straps in close to mint condition. Both straps are marked with RBNr. 0/0676/0039 44 and are in perfect matching condition. Excellent matching set of 1944 dated straps in great condition!

Nice and interesting M38 gasmask in great condition. One of the straps is marked with an ink stamp Schutzpolizei-Dienstabteilung and named Rashhoter/6. Great textbook example of an M38 gasmask!

Unissued example made out of thin green fabric. This is a textbook late war production. The pouch shows almost no wear from storage and is in mint condition.
