Assistance Required with Values and ID

[Newbie]

I was wondering if I could get some help with identifying these items and as well determining value ? These are all items I collected when I was a child. Any help would be appreciated ! I have more photos of marks but I did not want to overload this post.

The first one up is a bayonet I recieved from my great uncle, he was a Canadian paratrooper in WW2.

I received this with a gun I bought, it fits my Sterling so I assume it is for a Sten Gun, it is marked 1947.

I can't remember where I got these next two from.

I got this one from my grandfather, some relative of ours served with this group.

My Dad found this with a metal detector in Northern Alberta.

Bought this in a pawn shop.

I think the brass tube might be from a butt of a British 303, it has markings on the bottom.

My great Uncle from the Signal Corps.

I can't remember where I got this, looks like gold thread.

Came from my great uncle the paratrooper, has C.C.B. RCAF NO 22 something and 1942 RCAF 22/397 stamped on the strap.

Barrel cover stamp.

Came from my great uncle the paratrooper, the black leg things he said came from a special group, I can't remember what that group was now. I assume the netting is for a helmet.

Cleaning kit, unknown (wallet maybe?), sewing kit.

The belt came from the signal corps great uncle, the rest from the paratrooper uncle Uncle, lots of stamps on the rest of it, the suspenders and the ammo pouches have matching numbers.

Here's an excellent web site with a lot of great information about oilers and their various markings.

Lee Enfield Oilers (click here) (http://www.enfield-stuff.com/oilers/oiler_types/oiler_types_index.htm)

Here's a page on that site, where he sells various types of oilers.

This appears to be part of the standard 1937 Webbing Set. You can compare it against the full set and see what's missing. :)

The first bayonet is for a Ross, many were used as fighting knives. The second one is for a No.5 jungle carbine. The Sterling took the same bayonet as the No.5.

The black anklets were worn by the Winnipeg Rifles, I think.

Any idea on values ?

thanks jay

You may be right, I did a little research on the net and the Royal Winnipeg Rifles had a relationship with black.

I have no idea what the Ross bayonet is worth, it sure looks like a nice one. Are you interested in selling the No.5 bayonet? I have a carbine built in 1947, it would be nice to have the bayonet from the same year.

The brass doo dads in the wallet are button sticks, you slide them under the button so you can polish it without removing it from your tunic. :)

I looked the bayonet over (closer) and found a P5 on the front lower tang, P (in a circle) 1947 on the blade, Z8661 and a Arrow (government property mark) on the rear metal portion of the handle. The metal on the handle has been painted green (over the original black), not factory. I left it because it might have some meaning. It would be easy to remove. I have no scabbard. The blade is almost new in condition.

I have no reason to keep it and I would rather it go to someone who appreciates it. That goes for pretty much all of it except maybe the googles, as I just found a picture of my great uncle wearing them. My Mom's side of the family is German so thats where I am focusing my attention. I would sell it or if you have anything German pre-46, I would trade..... I really need original pistol magazines and holsters (walther, mauser, luger, sauer).
