SMA2085 Bolt Stop Set For The Japanese T-38 Rifle. - Complete with internal parts and screws. Condition - not bad with some rust and pitting. $10.00 (View Picture)

14958 WWI BRITISH LEATHER RIFLE SLING - Unmarked, but definitely British military issue. This secures with the leather thong at the lower swivel, and is a simple, but effective sling, little changed from those used by the British military for most of the 19th century. Used excellent, with leather nice and flexible. $49.00 (View Picture)

14278 HOLSTER FOR ARGENTINA CONTRACT MANNLICHER 1905 SEMI AUTO PISTOL - At first glance this looks like a Jap Nambu holster with the large clamshell flap. No markings that we could find.  Overall excellent condition with tight stitching and leather not scuffed or scraped. One stain on the flap (oil, blood, coffee?) just a bit darker than the leather.  Thanks to visitor Vince, we now know that this is an Argentine made holster, (and all are unmarked) for the Argentine contract Mannlicher Model 1905 pistols.    A great example of a scarce holster.. $195.00 (View Picture)

14406 WW2 Japanese Field Telephones (Lot of Two) - Two field telephones for wire communications between troop in the field or in fixed positions. (Ah so, prease send more sushi to bunker six….) These are both in excellent condition and appear complete (except for batteries which would have corroded everything). One comes with the leather carrying case which has additional wires and stuff in a pocket inside the top flap, and a ground spike(?) on the outside of the case. Other than the leather case, both appear identical, and in excellent condition. Wooden cabinet with aluminum reinforced edges and lid. The handset is also made from aluminum. The cord is cloth insulated. The wiring diagram and instructions are pasted on the inside of the lid. Not sure of the model designation, possibly Type 92? These came from a veteran’s estate collection of other WW2 Japanese military items. Selling both phones together for $350.00 (View Picture)

14383 BRITISH WW2 KHAKI WEB SLING FOR ENFIELDS - Khaki web, no markings that were obvious. Used fine to excellent. $12.00 (View Picture)

SMA1832 - Reproduction Shoulder Stock For Browning High Power Pistols. Good quality reproduction, this will fit High Power pistols that have the shoulder stock slot. Good condition except for a crack on the thick part of the hinged butt section, this could easily be fixed by someone who is good with woodworking. $200.00 (View Picture)

12637 - Japanese case of metal printer's type - Loaded with all sorts of unusual characters in multiple languages.  Laid out in 55 columns with about 25-30 individual pieces of type under that column matching the paper list on the inside of the lid.  About a dozen pieces of type missing.  Some of these look like the series numbers used n Japanese rifles.  Not sure what it is for, or if it is military or civilian, or WW2 or earlier, or later.  What you see is what you get.  Remember the old Rockford Files TV show?  Maybe Mr. Rockford-San used this to make up fake business cards in the back of his Toyota.  Lead type is heavy, and this box weighs about 21 pounds. $49.00 (View Picture)

11896 - BRITISH PATTERN 1937(?) WEB SLING- USED - Made of khaki colored web in various shades and show some use, but not frayed or damaged, just the brass tabs and hooks may be tarnished and the web shows effects of washing and use.  Overall VG-excellent condition.  Have several, price per sling is $15.00 (View Picture)

11891 - BRITISH PATTERN 1937(?) WEB SLING- 1942 DATED - About mint unissued with nice clear markings- L.L. & T. LTD/ 1942 and Canadian broad arrow in a C.  Just right for a really minty WW2 SMLE rifle. $20.00 (View Picture)

11597 BRITISH WW1/WW2 .303 AMMUNITION SHIPPING CRATE - A very complex design with dovetailed corners and a wedge shaped sliding lid, with hole at front to secure shut with a cotter pin. Overall about 8.5" x 10" x 7" high. Tin liner is intact except for the flap which is torn off to allow access to contents. Wooden cleat on one end with a heavy wire handle with partial leather cover. Apparently never painted, as there are remnants of several different labels and a couple of stenciled or branded markings. Part of the word TRACER can be made out on one, and it has about 10 bright and shiny .303 tracer cartridges with K5 G II 44 headstamp and red primer seal. We have previously offered a similar box about twice the size which was WW1 era for .303 Ball ammunition. Probably used to ship ammo which was then belted up locally, perhaps aboard ship, or at RAF stations. Box is somewhat weathered but only one we have ever found in this size. $75.00 (View Picture)

SMM1644 - Decoration Italian Fascist WWII Small Red "u". Recently acquired with a group of other WWII souvenirs from a retired WWII veteran. $10.00 (View Picture)

8164 FRENCH MADE CZECH DESIGNED GAS MASK - FATRA F-M3c model with gray rubber face piece and six head straps. Mask is in excellent condition with good markings (VERNON) showing manufacture under license from the Czechoslovakian inventors, probably circa 1935-1940. Filter canister is OD color and dirty and somewhat rusty with embossed marking CP 1935 M and some ink stamped stuff (lot number?). Comes in a carrying container which seems to be made out of a rough textured paper mache with a web strap to keep the cap from being lost. My understanding is that these were intended for sale to French civilians, and the quality s lower than the Czech originals, and the plastic eyepiece lenses are invariably in poor condition, with one partially detached in this example.. It is possible that some went to Finland for their Army, but that is pure speculation, based on the fact that the Finns did use a number of the Czech made masks, and both have the same flimsy type carrying $95.00 (View Picture)

8163 CZECH GAS MASK AS USED BY FINNISH ARMY - FATRA F-M3a model with gray rubber face piece and six head straps. Mask is in excellent condition with good markings showing manufacture in Czechoslovakia, probably circa 1935-1940. Filter canister is OD color and dirty and somewhat rusty with embossed marking CP 1935 M and some ink stamped stuff (lot number?). Comes in a carrying container which seems to be made out of a rough textured papier mache with a web strap to keep the cap from being lost. $95.00 (View Picture)

5985 WW2 JAPANESE CIGARETTES - Previous owner stated they were "taken from a Japanese POW on Iwo Jima" but we have no way to verify that. Green printing on white cardboard pack with eagle design and lots of Japanese writing. Probably tasted horrible when fresh and even worse now. Neat WW2 Pacific campaign item. Looks like there were 10 to a pack originally, but only three left now. Pack is not holding together too well. $25.00 (View Picture)

4759 WW2 JAPANESE OFFICER TUNIC - About size 34 short made of high quality light weight wool fabric with some silk lining. Brass buttons on front and upper pockets (one large button replaced with slightly different type). Bone or ivory studs in the collar and cuffs for detachable pieces. Cuff studs have poked thorugh the outer fabric but not too unsightly. A few small moth nips but displays very well. Used a fair amount with some period repairs (mainly on torn spots in the lining). Unmarked except for two neatly embroidered characters insdie the left lapel. $150.00 (View Picture)

4757 WW2 JAPANESE ENLISTED RAINCOAT - About size 34 or 36 made of light to medium weight tightly woven cotton material with heavy cotton full length lining. No hood. Overall fine-excellent condition except needs to be cleaned. Sleeves are cut extremely full in the armpit area allowing extremem movements. Adjusting belt on back of matching material with three buttons. Marked inside left lapel. $65.00 (View Picture))

4751 WW2 JAPANESE OFFICER WINTER LONG UNDERWEAR - White cotton flannel with draw tapes to secure the waist and ankles. No markings. Mint unissued, Size about 34 waist and 29 inseam but probably only inended to come to ankles. Military underwear and footgear of any type era are extremely scarce as they were considered suitable for civilian use and used until worn out and discarded. $39.00 (View Picture)

2465 Foreign rifle sling(???) - I thought this was type used by the French for MAS 45 version of the KKW .22 trainer, but someone who knows more than I says it is not.  I do know it is made of brown leather 1 inch wide by about 40 inches long. Buckle sewn on one end and stud secured other end. Has "set" from being one something with swivels about 33 inches apart. Used excellent $10.00

1945- present (Cold War, Vietnam, other post-WW2 items)

SMM2048 SLING - K98, Israeli - When issued all K98's were equipped with a carrying sling. All K98k"s, G43"s and MP44"s used the same "Karabiner" sling made of leather with a diamond pattern embossed. It had a keeper (Frosch) in butt stock end and three holes for adjustment.

This sling is well worn brown leather, age and usage darkened, with brass fittings. The all over impressed diamond pattern is worn and very hard to see. One end of the sling has a pointed tip with three, tear-drop shaped, stud eyelets and a separate, leather covered, brass tab with an extended stud for fastening it to the K98 rifle. The opposite end of the sling is folded over and machine stitched to the reverse to secure a partially leather covered, brass, grasping buckle with an internal, gripper bar. The grasping buckle is well marked with an impressed a Hebrew character inside a circle. The sling shows moderate chafe wear but no cracks, the leather is still quite supple. Overall this is a very nice sling and just the thing to make any K98 rifle complete. $50.00 (View Picture)

11264 Guerilla modified BAR and LC-1 ammo Belts - One started as a regular U.S. BAR belt, made in 1951 and was in excellent condition. Then someone converted it for use with other type magazines, probably AK-47 or perhaps the 30 round M16 magazines. They removed the snap for the lift the dot fastener, attached a leather extension and relocated the snap. Nicely done workmanship using low grade reddish brown leather, but looks hand stitched. The other is a post 1981 LC-1 belt with three leather ammo pouches added. The pouches have M1956 type fasteners on the back for attaching to the belt. Two of the pouches are made for one large and one smaller magazine (maybe 30 round and 40 round AK 47 Mags?) The small pocket is too long for a 20 round M16 mag and the width is too snug for practical use. The larger pocket is also snug on a M16 mag and too long for the 30 round version. Not being an AK kind of guy, I cannot tell you if they fit better or not. Reddish brown leather with unmarked domes type snaps on the flaps. Good (but not great) workmanship, looks like machine stitched. Leather is poor quality, and has white crud/mildew that needs a good cleaning and treatment to stop. I am pretty sure this was done by/for some guerilla group somewhere. Possibly Vietnam era, and just placed on a more recent LC-1 belt, or perhaps something from counter-guerilla ops in the Philippines, Afghanistan or ????. I do know that both belts can be yours for only $65.00 (View Picture)

Cold War Training Posters- Weapons, Uniforms, equipment
Genuine U.S. military posters, dated from 1960 through 1980s with major focus on the Soviet Army and its stuff, and to a lesser degree on the other Warsaw Pact nations. These were posted in US and NATO military bases to familiarize troops with the potential enemy. They were considered expendable (throw away) items and undoubtedly most have long since been trashed. Great for a collection of Cold War or Commie Bloc stuff, or to display with a military vehicle of the era. Unless otherwise noted, the are in color, and in fine-excellent condition but may be have a wrinkled or folded corner, or one or two minor rips on an end, nothing serious, but something expected on 20-40 year old papers. Shipped rolled- $4 shipping cost for first one, FREE SHIPPING for additional posters from this section.
