Sounds pretty decent, I look forward to some pics. I take it the gas mask bags are postwar versions? I've been after a wartime one for ages. Snowsui...
My feelings exactly Josh. What kit is you have for rental btw? I know you said it was Polish but I'm interested to see what it is exactly.
Welcome to the forum Longword. Some great looking photos there. An interesting an very unusual subject area too, and one I can't say I know alot about...
Well the kit sent was often obsolete so there is no chance they would be coroccans, more likely roughouts, along with Brit boots- which were hated as ...
Belt hooks were used very early war before the introduction of Y-straps in 1940. If you're going for anything post 1940 you have no need of them as yo...
lol, sadly bud it will be pure eastern front, saying that some of the US kit you have will be fine for russians to use as the US sent piles of kit in ...
I'll get it sorted. If I can sell some spare bits I've got lying around I'll order the tunic this week.
The best advice I can give is don't go for an NCO, then you don't have to bother!

shouldnt you be trying to avoid head shots????? If a head is all I can see thats what I'll shoot. I will try to avoid it if the person isn't wearing ...
I've read some of those discussions about panzergrenadier waffenfarbe colour but I believe they all refer to Heer troops. All the info I've seen- incl...
Yes german helmets don't work as well, especially if they have a cover on. Brit para helmets are the best -they're nice and noisy and keep ringing so ...
Even the odd private can scrape in...
There is nowt more satsifying than the 'dink' you get when you get a helmet shot using a rifle at long range. Other than perhaps when they yelp.
Actually I don't belive the Waffen SS did use green panzergrenadier waffenfarbe. I have seen no evidence of it. I think they used white, the same as t...
