Very nice German optic lightning cable diffuser in excellent and probably in working condition. This example is nicely marked with a late war 3 letter code fwq which is a still unidentified manufacturer. This sort of switch could be worn on the belt to easily control the settings!

Excellent late war manufactured leather K98 bayonet frog. The frog is in excellent, close to mint condition. The frog features a nice pebbled leather retaining strap and a faded RBNr. on the back. Perfect example to match with a late war bayonet!

Anti partisan badge in Silver – C.E. Juncker, Berlin. Late war type 4 zinc Bandenkampfabzeichen with wide pin setup and no cut out holes between the snakes. Silver wash finished example that remains in unworn condition. Shows about 70% of the finish still remaining. These silver examples are nearly always found with completely faded finish making it difficult to judge the grade. This being an exceptionally well preserved example that can therefor be considered very rare. This APB was brought home by a US soldier after the war and taken from his estate. The pick up story is unknown, however the unworn appearance suggest this was grabbed from left over stock at the end or after the war. Extremely difficult to find an honest silver example with this much finish!

Rare MP44 pouch set marked JWA 44 and mkb 42 indicating production by Moritz Stecher, Lederwerk, Freiburg. The pouches are both in very good, unused condition and show a typical mix of fabric, sewing techniques and thread used in the construction. These pouches are slightly different which is completely normal for these late war pouches mostly made from scrap material. The pouches retain all 6 closing straps with typical woven holes and metal lux points. The straps are handsewn to the front of the closing flaps which is typical for the pouches made by Moritz Stecher. The closing flaps are lined in leather with the sides in yellow Pressstoff. Very hard to find a pair of pouches, left and right, by the same manufacturer, year and condition. This pair comes from my personal collection and is only for sale because I’m chasing another variant pair. Choice pouches!

Rare square MP40 magazine brush in good used condition. These brushes where stored inside the magazine loader on the side of the left pouch. A small detail which is a main component for any MP40 equipment set but always missing!

Textbook ZF4 sniper scope marked DOW. The scope is in good used condition.

M34 Square dip Feuerschutzpolizei helmet by BXF. The helmet retains its original liner, chinstrap and neck flap. The decals sadly have been denazified.

Textbook Luftwaffe EM/NCO visor marked S Fliegerhorst Kommandantur Wilhelmshaven inside the sweatband. The cockade is in aluminum, with the eagle in zinc. The cap is nicely maker marked and dated!

Excellent late war grenade bags in combat used condition. The bags are made of thick green coloured fabric and feature brown leather closing straps which sadly are dry and fragile. In contrast to 99% of the grenade bags on the market today this set is in issued and combat used condition! Textbook late war example in desirable issued condition!

Very nice late war K98 ammunition pouch in untouched condition. The pouch is manufactured from brown leather and nicely marked jtu 43. In contrast to 99% of these later war brown ammunition pouches this example is issued and used. Nice unusual example!

Late blue Heer belt buckle marked N&H L indicating production by Noelle & Hueck, Lüdenscheid. The buckle retains 90% of it’s original factory paint! A very nice Heer belt buckle that would be hard to upgrade!

Large pre war rucksack marked Gustav Sudbrack 1939. These rucksacks were previously thought to be Gebirgsjäger but other people say it might be Kriegsmarine. I believe both theories are plausible.

Late war Tornister made from recycled materials. The second one in this pattern I have ever seen, the other one being in a friends collection. This late war Tornister is a nice example; fully made from recycled material. The fur is not made from one piece but made from square patches. The canvas used in producing this is all different coloured material with a nice detail being a blue checkered fabric is used in the lining. Nice and uncommon Tornister for any equipment collection!

Nice M38 gasmask with tall 1944 dated canister. The tall canister is complete with both its short and long carrying strap and the original Klarscheiben. The mask itself is a nice black rubber variant with blue painted hardware! The canister is nicely named to Schütze Fajgel. Excellent late war set in good condition!

Stone mint Luftschutz issue gasmask in canister. All parts are present and this example would be impossible to upgrade!

Textbook single Heer EM Infanterie shoulderstrap in good used condition. The strap is a typical mid war example.
