Gentlemen, can I enquire about buying some of the russian parts without serial numbers taht were mentioned? I'm in need of some cheap parts such as a sideplate, trigger, axle pin etc. I'm from the UK and I'm trying to repair a very pitted and sad looking deactivated P08 that I've got. It's not worth much but its good for reenacting.
Many thanks
Ben

Ben, I doubt that you'll find any unnumbered original parts available here or in Europe, without paying a large premium (at least double for Mauser marked armour's spare parts). I do have some Russian or DDR renumbered original DWM & Mauser side plates that are relatively cheap. HESSIAN: Nice photos of the salt caves. DAN44 During the cold war, the Russians could suppy these pistols to communist sympathising groups such as the Sandanistas, with "plausable deniability". As Sgt. Schultz always said "We know nothing" about these WW2 German guns. TH

Default I told you!

Hello,

Well for all the people who doubted me, on my presentation of items stored in the "salt mine" I now present you with more proof of my claims.

http://www.moscowtimes.ru/stories/2005/01/20/002.html

Whats funny is that all the time I have been selling these items to forum members all along!

To those who were rude in emails and accused me of making things up my question to you is, " How does the Crow taste"

I will now go back to selling more items

Regards,
Hessian

LIKE THIS?

Up for grabs are anything from uniforms and small arms to T-34 tanks, ZiS-3 76mm artillery guns and Maxim machine guns. The hardware would be available in deactivated condition and in original and export versions.

Foreign armament would include German Mauser and Walther pistols, American and British models of Colt pistols, Thompson submachine guns, Lee-Enfield rifles, and German Tiger and Panther tanks ΓΆ?? all of which were captured as war trophies or acquired under the American Lend-Lease program.

Did I miss something? In these articles I did not read anything about crates of Lugers.



Uh, you know I don't really care, but who made lugers and P38's the last 10 years?

Mauser and Walther (among othes I know) ...
