Crazy Dutch Boys are working on a Photo-story like last year. Will probably surface tonight or tomorrow.

The Zib militaria zelt is pretty good though.

The Zeltbahn pictured has pretty damn close colours. Depends what Zelt you compare it with though. When you take a look at the latewar variant, with brown painted aluminum buttons ( presumably Italian ) it looks very good. The fabric, though is too thin, too closely woven with to fine threads. Thus ...

Best bet is natural leather, blackened leather or Presstoff. The Presstoff variant only began to show up at the ardennes offensive though. Those are the commonly found pouches. The other pouches mentioned at that site could be original, though you should try to get one of the ones mentioned above. D...

Saw some of the Polish Pz. Lehr guys carrying a homemade replica G41 in the ardennes last year.

I've got mine from a family member together with his uniform. Straps aren't german as well. Know about 10 more of these exactly like this. Luftwaffe and Kriegsmarine carried feldgrau canisters.

Yeah and when you scrape some off you'll get yellow below. Lots of them show up in the Netherlands, I'm told for the postwar civil protection unit : BB.

Have seen them in Person. How much do they go for? Looks like a promising 2nd choice over Lederarsenal.

PK-berichter Zuckerbauch steht bereit!

http://img59.imageshack.us/img59/2063/img130oa.jpg Some photos from this weekends Victory show. All taken at the show then developed and printed at the show in the field, hence the need to clean the negatives and improve the cropping to lose the crown in some of the shots. Hopefully more to follow ...

September, Arnhem/oosterbeek. And the second picture of hessian scrim on german helmets i've ever seen.
