Troy Tempest Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 Hello again gents! I've been looking for a mess tin, but I've never seen one with an RZM marking before. I just did a quick net search, and found two examples on other sites, are these rare-ish? Price is pretty high, I'm guessing you pay a premium for such a marked example? I wasn't planning on paying this much, maybe half tops, but I wasn't planning on finding an RZM marked example either. 85 euros.
Laurence Strong Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 Hello Troy From what I can find out, they are rare mess kit's. Apparently these were issued to SS-VT. Para-military branches like HJ, SA, NSKK etc usualy had larger models (based on older model mess kits) with comparable RZM stamping. Hope this helps a bit Larry
Troy Tempest Posted February 22, 2014 Author Posted February 22, 2014 Thanks Larry! It's a bit over twice what I was planning to pay but I do like the RZM markings. I'll post better photos when I receive it mate.
Laurence Strong Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 Not going to vouch for authenticity however.....Same RZM # 60 euro cheaper.http://www.janssen-militaria.com/oscommerce/product_info.php?products_id=2724
