A beautiful pair of Steingrau trousers and Bergemutz. Managed to sew on the bevo T eagle without making too much of a mess of it.

Cheers
Martin

Somewhat annoyingly there was a mix up with the order and they didn't arrive in time for the event I was going to wear them too, and the event I'd planned to go next weekend in them has been cancelled :(

Oh well, they will look very fine at Copenhagen, and possibly some other games too.

Do you know what the strange metal ring above the small slit pocket by the fly is for? To attache my fob watch too??

Cheers
Martin

Yes, pocket watch ring for the pocket watch pocket! Fob watches were on the way out and wrist watches were more popular (if you could afford a watch at all) so were commonly used for holding condoms I believe.

add wheels and you've got an airsoft mule train. You may need a dedicated vet with a puncture repair kit and pump if you let it get shot :D

Ah. But now the mag will be separate and lighter and I will remove the buttstock so we can split the load between us!

Oh dear, I won't say how little I got mine for... although the only game I've ever actually used it in was as a GJ, generally it just gets used to carry all my camping gear. St Nazaire was cancelled and I'm missing Merville.

Cheers
Martin

All sorts of joy, which I've not got the spoons to bother listing :)

The latest of which is a 1944 dated British army bicycle crank cotter-pin removal tool :slap:

Now the fun of waiting for the customs charges and then stripping it down and fixing all the problems with it :)
Still at just over £200, you can't complain.
