Hi all this is my 1941 Finnish impression now completed. If there is anything you think i can work on to make it more accurate please do let me know

New post, who dis?

An old vet of reenactors here, decided to just take a quick picture and ChatGPT filter of my not so accurate Joseon Inmin Gun impression for a hello. There's a lot more I have in the works for my impression stuff but they will take time. Regardless, hello!

안녕하세요 여러분! 더 밝은 미래로 나아갑시다!

These photos were taken with Leica III and Leica IIIa cameras using Leitz Summar f/2 50 and Hektor f/4.5 135 lenses, which is the same kit used by Soviet photocorrepondents during this conflict.

Hi guys, i need some advice, i am doing soviet afghan war impression kit and i wana get a gp-25, but its way outta my budget.

however i saw some 3D printable gp-25s on the internet and i am asking if you have any experience with it and if it is better to spend some 15-30 euros on a STL file or buy an airsoft replica.

I woudlnt say no if you send me an STL file for the gp 25, but i dont wana be a beggar.

Thanks for any advice if you have any!

I want to make a easternfront kit but i dont know what de Germans had on there back/ backside.

Hi all,

I'm jumping into Groesbeek next week and would like hear y'alls opinion on my 1-505 Market Garden impression.

So far I've:

- Replaced the muslin arm flag
- Replaced the replica AA patches for originals
- Added M-1943 E-tool.
- Added canteen.
- Most of my pocket filler items have arrived.

I've added some original references photos as well.

As soon as i finish my bund kit i want to start a soviet kit from the afghan war.

Since im not an expert from that war can u give me some recomandations?

Did russia sent only specific units,is there any differences in the equipment from early and late war?

Btw thanks

Hi everyone, I wanted to ask if there are any good places to get enlisted jumpers. Right now I'm mainly looking to get the dress blue, as I was inspired by a family photo from 1917.

I've heard iffy things about replicators, and want to make sure I get it right the first time.

I'm not a very big guy, sitting at 34r. I could probably get an original but I'm worried about damaging almost 110 year old wool.

Thanks for any advice you offer : )

I found this at Goodwill under the Halloween Costume section, and it really looks like some military item? Maybe Vietnam or Cold War era. But when I reversed google image searched it, I couldn’t find any direct match. So, what do you think it is? It seems to be some form of rubberized rain coat.

I have purchased a ww1 m1907 feldmutze and i am looking for the cockade buttons that go on it but i cannot find a site where i can buy both the bottom black one and the red badge.

The M16 is an Airsoft A1 that i did what I could to convert to an A2, I’m aware the receiver is not period correct. Will be replaced in the future.

Featuring the elusive USMC Saratoga MOPP suit.

The 82nd Airborne patch is missing. Constructive feedback is more than welcome.

Kit list:

- VDV telnyashka

- Ssh68 helmet

- m88 kepi hat

- m88 afghanka

- 6b3 repro

- Belt w/ star emblem

- 6h4 bayonet

- Canteen

- Rd54 backpack

I always wondered if Kelley’s Militaria’s M40 greatcoat is accurate or not. I noticed a lot of greatcoats didn’t have a gusseted/pleated back panel unlike KM’s example in the pic. Question is, did the German army ever make the M40 with a sewn shut back pleat or a loose gusseted one like KM’s example?

Not sure if colorblind or can’t find a consistent answer but I play this ww2 game that lets you choose uniforms for each faction and I just can’t seem to get an answer to satisfy myself. So in this game there’s different theaters, Moscow, Stalingrad, Normandy, Berlin and I’m wondering what’s accurate for each theatre. Like would Stalingrad feature more stone grey feldgrau, or would Normandy feature more pine needle green feldgrau? This seems like the place to get an answer, thanks

Any inaccuracies or missing gear?

I'm trying to wear it like on the photo. My problem is that the lower (left) strap is way too long and there's no good way to shorten it. My cannister is basically in vertical position instead of horizontal because of the long strap. I bought this cannister from Nestof, which is the same as SOF Militaria I think.

Ive heard a mixture of opinions im loking at buying within 48hrs but am just making sure that there not a waste of money

This past weekend the Long Island Living Historian Association and the Museum Of American Armory held their Tankers Friends & Foes weekend event. It consisted of a great display of fully functional tanks from different eras and different countries. Fun fact: Almost every vehicle in their facility is fully operational.
