    1. Maybe the original grips were in bad shape. least it gives you something to "aim" for ;-)
    2. I would give my eye teeth for a "maternity jacket" like the one in post one !
    3. Whats with the smooth grips on the Luger?
    4. Ahhh, OK. I heard of the incident, did not know the name though. Best Chris
    5. they have to be watered with blood to grow well :-(
    6. u...hum... anyone? the irontime one?
    7. Hi, is there a WS on the cross? Thanks Chris
    8. Indeed !!!! Its the history that makes this all sooooooo much fun !!!
    9. Does anyone have any earlier examples of the EK1?
    10. Me be a peasant mon... explain that to me... I am in the dark.......
    11. I would have thought we would have more ephemera collectors? I love the postcards with EK as main motive.
    12. I have about 10 petersons... I smoke them in secret as pipes look so pretentious nowadays...
    13. Is this light shade the very early type, before they went darker green? Thanks Chris
    14. Can this be something in the line of a labour corps unit ? Armierungs batln?
    15. What would you guys say a cloth mask should cost compared to a leather one... and secondly, how many leather ones do you see for each cloth one? Best Chris
    16. Thats a late propatria, the early ones had the gong and the bar hooked into each other. Best Chris
    17. Can it be that the relief is not as deep as in the early issue ones? Maybe a 1900 or so replacement?
    18. Who is the guy doing it? I sometimes run across him with document auctions...
    19. Ditto, I have a large photo of a Bavarian wearing an EK2 in a studio photo, then the EK1 added. It was probably done 1) as he was KIA after the EK1 award and never got around to getting a photo done 2) In 1933 wanted a photo of himself with his EK1 so had it added to a wartime photo Either one is possible.
    20. That clasp on the ribbon must make for complicated mounting when you try and put it on a bar?
    21. Hi, Its a very, very typical REP bar... after Kolwezi there was basically only Tchad... a bit later Liban, but you can safely say a "Generation" of REP men had that trio.
    22. I am no experts, but they look very nice indeed!
