[Heinrich (Mr.Uniwersum_GER)]

for those looking to collect flags, I found a sit that offers several historical flags, including some lesser-known Nazi flags. (though I think the SS one may just be for skinheads [black field with white runes], as I've never seen any historical footage with that flag, ever.)

[Thorondor123]

SS-Hausflagge?

[Cory the Otter]

I don't know much about Nazi flags, I'm just saying i've never seen that one and I'm not sure if it was ever used historically, but mudra'll probably in any moment to clear it up.

I have a K31. Nice rifles although i don't like the trigger that much. On my rifle its a very long pull and there is almost no difference is pressure before the shot goes off, don't like that, the K98k is much better for me with its double trigger. anyone know how to change it on the K31, is it possible?

They are not that expensive here, and often they are in perfect condition with matching numbers.

Tss, how much money are you going to spend there? :p

I will shoot mine in 8 days, will see if i can make a video of it. Any specific things you guys want to see the rifle do?


I have a small question. I noticed that lately a lot of mint condition M1903 A3 are on the market here. I think a batch must have been released from storage. Do you think its worth buying one? Price was 400 IIRC. They started production mid WW2, but when did it stop? anyone know how to recognize a WW2 made one?

Earlier today I stumbled over some imageshack links with pictures of some of my winter gear. Now I stumbled over this thread and thought I'd share them.

Why do you keep a male mannequin in your house?

[sn00x]

because he wants to?

I love the splinter!

For my purposes a male mannequin is what I need. If you want to do other stuff than show off ww2 uniforms you should of course go with something else, maybe a sheep mannequin is what would suit you best.  

[Cory the Otter]

Are you insinuating I have sex with sheep?
