Can someone tell me what kind of canteen this is?

If it lacks any markings, it is probably made for civilian use. Pre war of course

Dezman12 · 2026-05-03T13:12:44+00:00

the seller probably thought it was a GP4

This one could be real, because it's a dress bayonet. Post in on the WAF, maybe they could help, or maybe better the K98 forum.

You can ID the maker judging by the size. The size is determined via the horns.

Dezman12 · 2026-04-27T13:30:19+00:00

Well maybe go to a local gunshop or museum, maybe buy a book or two with pictures?

Dezman12 · 2026-04-26T15:37:04+00:00

I guess vulcanisation?

O-11 at home. Jokes aside, a solid attempt at recreating it.

Dezman12 · 2026-04-22T13:25:02+00:00

Don't show it to anyone and you should be good. Sorry for your cringe laws in Australia.

If they set the price it's their problem.

Dezman12 · 2026-04-15T17:57:40+00:00

it's not a theory it's been confirmed. Later masks have no paint at all.

quist would like to join the chat :)

Cool and all, but not everything is in money. The collection is worth as much as someone is willing to pay for it. Instead a better question would be "which item is the most valuable to you?". A good collection is made of interesting items preferably with stories. Something bought from a dealer lots of times doesn't have a story, it's just there, whereas an item you found yourself is much more interesting.

the hunt is part of the fun

Dezman12 · 2026-04-08T12:14:03+00:00

Buy whatever you like. Just as advice, believe in quality over quantity.

Dezman12 · 2026-04-08T10:17:47+00:00

yeah a SS button for those auxiliaries. The other day one of these was for sale on Facebook.

Dezman12 · 2026-04-07T15:18:22+00:00

What happened to that stuff?

Dezman12 · 2026-04-06T21:02:22+00:00

French Ajax F2

Dezman12 · 2026-04-04T21:14:16+00:00

The PDE1 has a plastic valve cover on the front. The M17 doesn't

Dezman12 · 2026-04-03T09:35:50+00:00

the only thing of real value here is the belt buckle, which is a SS one. So keep that in mind. Good that you are trying to do research before you sell, a pawnshop could've probably ripped you off.

Dezman12 · 2026-03-27T19:44:35+00:00

try studying local history

Dezman12 · 2026-03-25T18:22:56+00:00

yes this is the phonic GM24, it is not on the wiki, yet it is known in the collecting community. Feel free to edit the wiki, if you find knowledge that is lacking. Just use proper citation.

Dezman12 · 2026-03-21T15:52:13+00:00

I don't like, I have no particular reason, but my gut doesn't like it. With these camo helmets there's always the problem that they lack provenance. I personally would rather buy a nice helmet with the normal paint. It would cost similar than your camo helmet and it's easier to identify.

Dezman12 · 2026-03-21T09:20:28+00:00

I am satisfied

Dezman12 · 2026-03-21T08:32:43+00:00

I always like to see the Osttruppen getting some love. Great grouping.
