Luftwaffe Rules

Well for the first time ever, I have an entire room devoted to my relaxation, reading, enjoying my pieces, and listening to music. And here she is, after alot of hard work, cleaning, storing items in the attic (have you ever spent an hour in an attic when its 98 degrees OUTSIDE and at least 120 in the attic? Its not pretty nor is the smell LOL). Anyways please enjoy, lord knows I am! All the best, Jonathan P.S. Please ignore my ugly mug!

Did some rearranging, and put some new things up. Got the 1/32 Fw-190 A8 Sturmbock from Walmart on sale for $15, was $30, had been waiting for it to drop. Goes perfectly in my opinion with the young Day Fighter's portrait on the right and the Fw-190 postcard on the left. Also go the cuff title, letter, and photo into a nice frame and up on my 'Wall of Fame'. Enjoy! All the best, Jonathan

Thanks Mr. Paul! All the best, Jonathan

Thanks gents! I wish I could have seen my face when she told me it was mine LOL. I had thought that it would be unsafe to fire but thank you for confirming this for me. The quality of work probably wouldnt hold up too well 60+ years later. Thanks again guys! Shes hanging on my wall right now, it replaced my other Type99 that I bought. All the best, Jonathan

Thanks gents! Brian thank you for that information, I can see that I made an uneducated guess as to the blood pitting. I drew two conclusions that I thought guaranteed it LOL. All the best, Jonathan

Never had them:

This showed up at my door today, my friend Angela said she had a surprise for me, and sure enough she did, I didnt expect this. She and her parents were cleaning out her Grandparents house after her Grandmother died the other day and they said they found this in the attic. I explained to her what little I knew about it, being a Japanese Arisaka Type 99 Rifle with its bayonet, has a dust cover, missing the bipod, never had air craft sites, and has a full mum. Told her this denoted a field capture, she said her Grandfather fought with the Marines in WWII and most likely brought it home. Sadly he never talked about what he did. I told her thank you for bringing it by and she goes, "No its for you." I was like HUH? And she said her parents didnt want it and that they all thought of me when they found it. So I am now the owner of a Vet captured Arisaka Type 99 with bayo. Im very happy, it certainly beats the heck out of the one I bought in terms of quality and appearance. If anyone knows anything about this particular piece please let me know, I also noticed it is named in two places but I cant read Japanese characters. The bayonet also has what looks like blood pitting on it, it looks like the Japanese soldier put the bayo away bloody. All the best, Jonathan

:speechless1: DROOOOLLLL Where exactly did you say you live again? As in street addy, etc? Those are spectacular pieces, I would love to have some HG stuff one day. All the best, Jonathan

The letter, photo and cuff title together as requested.
