Default Showing my small WW2 collection.
Hi all,

Here some items I've collected in the past 2 years.

To begin with my Mauser K98, every part has the same numbers. Made in 1937. Nice dark woodwork. 100% complete, with muzzle cap (same WaA63), The belt is from 1936. The K98 has approximately 50x WaA codes.
Here some few pics.

The bayonets are impressive and in excellent condition too. The Mauser is a little beauty and it has been very well preserved.

You have a whole museum at home. I like the condition of the messtin with the original leather belt strap still around it.

A great collection 272VGD. The mess tin strap is a difficult item to come by in such good condition, most mess tins are either missing the strap or have a repro one added to them.
