Rare late war M31 Splittertarn Zeltbahn with rotating button holes. This Zeltbahn was produced in a small experimental batch between May and July 1944. The Zeltbahn is in used condition with none of its buttons and one or two small damages. One of the rarest Zeltbahns to find!

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 or barrel carrier to cool down and a cool new barrel is inserted. According to regulations, the barrel had to be changed after 150 rounds fired continuously. Every MG team had one or two spare barrels in spare barrel carriers with their field equipment. The MG34 barrel carrier is in very good condition with 95% of the original tan colour remaining. The carrier was once overpainted in blue grey over the original tan factory paint. The carrier is nicely marked beq 1943 indicating production by Framo-Werke G.m.b.H., Hainichen/Sachsen. The carrier is complete with its original LUX marked strap and in very good condition. One of the rarest spares to find for the MG34!

Textbook M40 Heer trousers in wool. All of the nap is remaining to the wool, all buttons are present and originally sewn. I can not find any moth or insect damage to these trousers.

Minty and extremely scarce M35 ET62 double decal Kriegsmarine helmet. This helmet is a stunning and prime example of a near mint Kriegsmarine double decal M35 helmet. These helmets are extremely scarce as the three colour national shield was ordered removed very early in the war. The helmet retains its textbook ET Kriegsmarine decal and national shield up to 99%. The original paint surface on the helmet is smooth and still retains up to 99%. The helmet retains its original untouched liner with 3 tight liner pins all with full original paint. The helmet would be a prime piece in any Kriegsmarine collection! For sure the best Kriegsmarine I’ve had to offer!
