Want to trade for a plain stock, in same condition, even, so it does not get out of the collector fraternity. Has been in a fire and sanded.

I see the manufacturer, year, made of steel. But what are the numbers I have under "180"
On my Mauser/Oberndorf 1916 Gew98 who are these acceptance marks for ? I lost my references on a computer change. Thanks.
1966 No prices on flyer.
This is a completely unmarked holster. The inscription "obersturmführer von der Thal, Zweite kompanie, Panzer kampfgruppe Peiper". The pistol is my commercial version. Would like to find a roster,...
Am getting ready to sell this, but it is a little strange. It is not blued. Has a black finish, not paint, rather poorly done. The question, were that combination treated differently. Can some one...
Thank you.
I have had this NIB looking bayonet for over 20 years. And am getting ready to sell it. But i am worried about repo units. So is this really an unissued bayonet ?
thank you:)
Found this while de-junking my house. It is a 32 inch belt, where do you find 32 inch soldiers ? The upper edge has two sewn in d-rings for use as a Sam Browns belt. The other strap is on slides. The...
M1884 sn 373441. M1888 sn 523826. Barreled action 375975. Passing these on to children and want to see if there is anything about them they should know. Thank you.
I can see stolen guns, but ammo ? A manufacturer would not have a lot laying around.

Same design, much later on. S98 one piece grip variety.103575103574103576
My Amberg gew98, 1918, has been refurbished, sight updated and marked 1920 as a treaty weapon. But what ever are these markings on the sight ? I think I have seen them before, but nothing comes to...
The coffee can is getting smaller.
Serendipitously I ran across the translation of the maker side. A smith named Sukemitsu (WWII era). Where the blade meets the tang should be a character that means this is a factory blade made under...
I'll take a crack at it. But really need better pics. Tang with most characters. "sho wa jyu hachi nen hachi gatsu" Sho wa- 1926, 10+8-year, 8 month. August 1943.
The month/year really don't quite...
The coppery residue shows that it is brazed. The finish seems to be the darker, earlier refinish, or original manufacture. Thanks to all.9893398934
Is this bayonet really 100 years old ? Does not look it. How do you tell the difference between the WWI and WWII models ? Bought 20 years ago for $45 wrapped in oily butcher paper from a man with a...
Maybe to put under treads if mired.
After WWi Germany was restricted to a certain number and types of military. Small arms were repaired, refurbished and updated if necessary, and then stamped for the years 1920, 21, 22.
Until enough...
