>pics related

I also have a Kar98k with all the original parts with the correct serial numbers, and a repurposed stahlhelm

Why do i imagine you being either very fat or scrawny and asocial?
When i worked in an auction house a guy came regularly to buy some 3rd reich militaria, he was a fat git who needed a mobility scooter to move around.
Why are insecure, physically inept people so fascinated by nazism?

Wow, OP is just trying to share his nice wehraboo collection and you call him all those awful things

>implying it's not true

God, i hope you're not american

do any of you have 9/11 artifacts

shitload of ČSLA uniforms and some other stuff

also a lot of coins because my dad used to collect them, but iam not realy interested in it since reenacting is better hobby.

>Somewhat chubby now because I've stopped working out for a bit, going to the gym starting next week again
>Very social, no problem talking to people, have friends and had girl friends

This is my guilty-somewhat autistic pleasure. The only people that know about this are my closest friends and family members.

I live in northern Europe

no

Nice

>I live in northern Europe
If you say so, Ivan McPoland.

I'll give you another hint:
Scandinavia :^)

I used to collect militaria from a wide variety of countries and eras. I had to sell virtually all of it off to pay a relative's medical bills though, which really sucked. I don't plan to rebuild the collection.

>historical artifacts
>estampillas republicadas en los 70/80s

>stamps republished in the 70/80s* fucknt spic

Some of my stuff from back in the day when I collected militaria, all gone now, alas.

I'm an american so we don't have a rich military history. I have mostly WW2 gear with assorted WW1 items such as a gas mask and bayonet.

Is there a market for military items in Europe? Are things more common/less expensive? How far back can things date that are in circulation?

Your room must smell fucking awful.

>Be at surplus store
>Browsing, looking for something I can burn a bill on.
>Guy in his late teens walks inn
>Browses just as me and picks up a stahlhelm
>Pays for it and leaves out the door
>Can't bear the heat in the store anymore so walk out
>See the teenager with a friend
>He is wearing the helmet and casually walking down the street along with his uncomfortable Asian friend

Not historical per se but I own a M1897 Winchester takedown Field Gun made in 1912, poor thing got the bubba treatment and was sawed down before I bought it though. It fires like a dream though

t. jew

are you that guy from the national socialist thread

DA JOOODSS

whys it all gon? wots that aemircan looking hat?

I really fucking hate that faggot redditors squat here and bitch about everything they see including when someone shows off historical items they collected.
Really? You get triggered on a HISTORY board that someone has a historical artifact because it belonged to a faction you don't like?
Kill yourself.

I had to come up with $10,000 on short notice to pay my father's nursing home bill and didn't have enough cash, so I had to sell my militaria on eBay.
There are 4 American hats in the picture.
On top of the saddle by the water can is a WWI U.S. Army campaign hat with red artillery branch cord.
To its right, is an 1880s era New York State Militia 1st Cavalry Regiment helmet.
Moving to the right past the WWI German camo stahlhelm are 2 WWII U.S. Navy officer's caps. The white top for temperate climates, the khaki top for tropical and hot climates.

You do have a rich military history, it just doesn't go back as far as the Old World's.

Is there a market for military items in Europe?
Yes, there is a strong market for antique militaria in Europe, like there is here.
Are things more common/less expensive?
European militaria is more common in Europe, likewise U.S. stuff is less common there.
The prices are sometimes cheaper on common items but quality stuff is equally expensive no matter which side of the Atlantic.
How far back can things date that are in circulation?
Antiquity, you can still buy Roman arrow heads, etc. Probably 95% of militaria sold on eBay today though dates from the 20th Century. Time has a way of destroying objects and creating rarity.

I do. I don't have a picture of my collection sadly. Its not as impressive. I have a russian captured K98 and bayonet, 2 k98 ammo puches, an army belt/buckle, canteen, bread bag, and y straps. Final goal is a complete Heer early war uniform and field gear.

Triggered

All that projecting.
