I have a large collection of Nazi dick pics. I will share in the HOTD forum

No but I wouldnt mind having a few of the Nazi stamped cartridges for my ammo collection.

No.

I watch/read pretty much anything I can associated with WWII, especially the European theater, but I don't have a piece of Nazi gear (weapons included). I'd love to have a legit war production 98k, however I'm not going to pay the prices they want.

The gun-show dudes who exclusively sell Nazi gear are weird.

Airplanes and tanks mostly.

Just some bring backs that were "collected" off dead ones. People do collect this stuff I am sure they aren't worth what it took to get them.

I've got two P-38s. One made by Mauser and one made by Spreewerk. A kar98k made for Portugal with the Portugeuse crest which the Germans kept for themselves and a G-43. I also have a kar98a from WWI which took me years to find.
I also have a bunch of medals from both world wars.
No pics I'm too lazy to get out the camera.

Oh and a Hi Power. Almost forgot about that one. And the Walther PP.

My wife has a very nice collection of Edelweiss.The little 'daisy' flower was the official insignia of Germany's mountain troops.Some items she has are quite rare,such as an embroidered Edelweiss on desert tan cloth,obviously cut from a uniform and ( it appears) with blood stains.
I think all my pics are locked up on Photobucket.....

Scalps, mostly.

The trade has been in a noticeable uptick.

I want a P08 and P38, but don't care for any other Nazi stuff.

Usually just cops and bulldikes hanging out at the Nazi militaria tables at the gunshow. Gays love Nazi shit for some reason...

My grandpa did that too; he had pliers in his kit. He even took an entire officer's uniform (not sure what type) from a camp that his unit raided, but that stuff got lost long before I was born.

Nope I'm not a "history buff"

Posted: 9/16/2017 1:33:30 AM EDT

No. But I'm sure at some point I'll inherit a k98 Mauser with nazi proof marks. From my inlaws. It is associated with one of their parents who was in the military in WWII. Not sure if a bring back or what.

I collect WWII items from all major countries involved. If I have time tomorrow and there is interest, I could post some Kraut stuff.

Posted: 9/16/2017 1:46:41 AM EDT

[#26]

I collect a lot of stuff. The only thing I own with a dirty bird is some 8x56R ammo.
I refuse to have any.

Posted: 9/16/2017 1:52:07 AM EDT

I inherited a K98 rebarreled to .308. that has the Nazi eagle on it.
If not for the fact it was my father's I would have gotten rid of it.

I have a number of things, mostly brought back by a great uncle who was in the 6th armored division in the ETO. Seems he must have been quite the trader and collector of war souveniers. He died when I was 3-4 years old back in the late 1960s. He must have been late 20s or even early 30s in the 1940s, because as I remember him he was not a young man - maybe 60 when he died?
So what he brought back that I have are a helmet - black with heer eagle on left side, nothing on right. A number of white PT tanktops, a couple shearling lined winter hats, pins, a vehicle air ID flag (regular swastika flag but with grommets on all four corners), officers sword with hanger straps, army dagger, KAR98K that was unfortunately sporterized by my grandfather (had the original stock somewere, I'm sure my parents wouldn't have tossed it), and a cargo parachute drogue chute. Added some stuff (daggers mostly) from flea markets and auctions back in the late 70s and early 80s. Have not bought anything since then, other than try to get some pistols, which someday I hope to get a few different ones.
He also got several german cameras, which I still have.

1936 Mauser Luger with corresponding 1936 2 Reichsmark coin and a 1943 Walther P-38 with a 50 Reichspfenning coin

I've got a 1940 Walther PP on the way, should be here Monday. I don't think of myself as a collector of Nazi items, but more of a collector of 1930's-40's German guns. I also have a Mauser Broomhandle, manufactured between 32 and 34

Lol. No.

Posted: 9/16/2017 2:37:22 AM EDT

I want some, but i cant afford it, and the people that sell that stuff can be 88rs.

My wishlist includes: K98, luger, bayo (to match rifle), dress dagger (saw one for sale on GB, thought it looked cool and want one still), and a C96.

ETA:The C96 could be from WW1 or 2, but i would prefer 1.

I have an early (before RZM standardization) SA dagger.

Honest to God, my wife and I once had the opportunity to personally view a genuine enigma machine, held by a private collector.

I have a G-Date Luger rig (1935) and an AC-42 Walther P38 rig.

Meh

One of the biggest vendors or nazi stuff I would run into at the fun shows back east was Jewish. He had everything
from flatware/silverware, wall decor, to the smallest bits of a soldaten's kit.

Money is money

Personally I have a couple of K98's some bayonets, helmets, and some medals.

I also have some from other countries involved in WWII as well.

I did sell off my P08, P38, and a 1910/22 when things were tight employment wise.

Sure, it's where the money is.

Yup, I reenact WW2 German so a I have a handful of weapons, uniforms and gear. Weapons are original as well as some of the field equipment otherwise everything is reproduction.

My father collected shrapnel he "picked up" on a beach in Anzio in 44'
