Looks like a rivet above the chinstrap loop on the near man's helmet, should be welded but looks like a swivel. Strange piece. Looks like a "D" bale but they were welded and short lived. Also...

What a pig that would be to keep operating, I don't care who built it or assembled it. A mechanical nightmare.

I thought they must be 442nd.
Left parry, buttstroke!
Rifle grenades, my favorite. Look at the sweat on the jarhead...blouse is soaked.
I'd love to have it for the same reasons... Lets see the home made scabbard?
The fuze is a bit odd in shape but the rest could easily be a WW1 75mm Howitzer projectile. Gas or otherwise, a hole saw to open it for easy proof of demil. The top piece of fuze looks like the...
You'll find the Parker Hale sights are great to use.
Some nice clear pics when you can? Maybe we can figure out something about it yet...
Yes...
I had a look at their site and drooled a bit over the .50 Quad gun...
Nice, I had two for a while for my C1 rifle...they worked perfectly.
Here's my Springfield to show the difference, bet pic I have for comparison...
There's something you don't see much any more. Not common at gunshows either, kind of hens teeth...
Might be worth getting on spec because it's very odd. Has a slight cantilever angle and it doesn't look to have been home ground by the original lines and the angle of the edge. You can find 12"...
Here's mine...

I'm wondering if you could use the penetrators from .50...
Look at the bright side, you're probably the only guy to have consumed 30 rds in a T Gewehr in 100 years. Good thing you've got "A guy" to sort it. Let us know and eventually see targets or plate...

Nice, nice little piece. Always like those early carbines.
Looks like the older style of handle...
Musette bag is kind of hard to find nowdays. they got used for carry all and ended up worn out after service. Nice find.
I would think they would get their ordnance from old russia.
Yes, very expensive.
That's right.
Nope, they just sit flush. Inexperienced people sometimes damage the spring by pinching it while rotating the stock.
