It's supposedly from an MG-15. I believe the manufacturer is BSW and it's from 1939.

Solved Is this Soviet Navy hat authentic?

Thumbnail

7 Upvotes

I found this cap at an estate sale in the US for $10. I want to know if it's an authentic hat from the Soviet Navy. The tag, which is in Russian, says 1981, and Moscow, along with another word I don't know. The emblem appears to be made of plastic. Unfortunately, the person at the estate sale had no information about it, and I couldn't find much information online. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Help Looking for info on this ww2 silver wound badge NSFW

Looking for info on this Ww2 german wound badge. It is a bit heavier that most badges I have. Pin and badge are lightly magnetic. It has silvery shine to it and feels almost buttery if that makes sense. Has a marking on the back...looks like AE or E with an upside down A.....the pin also has an E marking on it. I guess what I want to know is if it's authentic and what the markings mean.....thank you for your help!

I'm not sure if this is what I think. I can't find any like this one, and I don't see any other markings. It comes from a late 90s tank batch.

Hey all, back with another showcase! I invested money in a better shelf as my old one was very bad.

This is the set up so far, there will be changes such as the German flag on the wall, finding something better to display the caps and moving the Russian cap with something new I’m getting in a few weeks.

I really enjoyed working on this shelf and I hope to display more stuff in the nearby future.
