Huge lot of WW1 and WW2 items, helmets, holsters, knives, etc!

[Grits1/5]

I’m thinning the collection, so here are some rare military collector items.
US M-1916 Holsters, from left to right:
1. 1917 dated Warren: great condition except for the leather by the brass belt hook is very worn. $50
2. Almost mint condition WW2 A.L.P (Atchinson Leather products) correct russet brown color. This holster looks to have never been issued, A.L.P is one of the scarce makers, having only made less than 10% as many holsters as larger manufacturers like Boyt. It came attached to an excellent condition pistol belt, I’ve seen these holsters go for $300 in this condition, I’ll list it for $150, or $175 with the pistol belt.
3. WW2 Enger in very good condition $sold
4. Another rare A.L.P in very good condition $100
5. Vintage officers or military police black leather Sam brown style belt with 1911 holster, US marked double magazine pouch, and another unknown but matching black leather pouch. $50 for the rig
Accessories:
6. WW2/WW1 canteen set with correct ww2 canteen pouch, 1943 Vollrath canteen, and a 1918 B.A.C.O canteen cup $sold
7. US M-1942 first aid pouches. $soldeach,
Headgear:
8. Ww2 M40 German helmet, ET64 size, the helmet is original, the liner is an older reproduction, and the paint and decals are old, but I doubt they are original. $225
9. Ww2 German gladiator style Luftschutz helmet. All original, well marked, these helmets were primarily used by anti-aircraft gunners $175
10. US m-1943 field jacket hood $10
11. US cold weather insulated helmet liner, this looks unissued, probably Korean War. $15
12. US (Vietnam war?) OD green, hat, jungle, with insect net. This is in new/unissued condition. $15
Other military collectibles:
13. WW2 .30m1 ammo can, with correct flaming bomb markings. This can came out of an estate with 3’x5’ US 48-star flag folded inside of it! Insanely cool to have it come with this rare flag in it, it surely has some insane history! The can and flag have tons of character, one of my favorite pieces! $sold for the set, I don’t want to separate them, since they have been together since ww2.
14. 3 framed sets of 2 original German ww1 postcards! Awesome humorous/satirical scenes and graphics! These were framed a very long time ago! $25 for each framed set of 2 postcards.
Edged weapons:
15. Huge machete, I think it’s a 32” blade. Can’t read the markings on the blade, the matching leather sheath is well marked though, unsure of the date, but definitely looks to be WW2 vintage $60
16. US M-9 bayonets. These are the real deal, one is Lan-Cay, the other is a Phrobis III. Both come with correct sheaths, the Phrobis has the belt clip modified. $150 (spf) for the LanCay, $180 for the Phrobis
17. Very Rare British SAS Fairbairn Sykes commando knife, marked Sheffield, England. This has the brass SAS crest mounted on the guard, I believe it is a presentation knife from the SAS. $200

I'll take that canteen cup. How much?

I was listing it with the canteen and pouch for $40, but I can do $20 if you just want the cup

I pm’ed you back, both m9’s are still available, I believe the dark phosphate blade is the Lan-Cay manufacturer one.

I didn't see the flag listed but it looks really cool.

Thanks for the note. Are you OK with mailing the M-9? Do you take PayPal?

Thanks,

The m40 helmet but it's too small.

 

[pistolpedro]

how much for the USMC pistol belt

 

[Grits1/5]

The m40 helmet but it's too small.

I have other German helmets too, I’ll see what sizes they are, 62 and 64 are actually pretty large sizes for German helmets, what size were you looking for!

 

[pistolpedro]

either the USMC pistol belt is sold or you don"t want to sell it. Which one?

He's a busy man. I can vouch for him though. He came over with that canteen cup and all was well. A great smooth transaction

Sorry man, yeah, I’ve been super busy. Yes, it the USMC marked pistol belt is for sale too. As you probably know, these original ww2 USMC pistol belts are extremely rare and expensive. And as a Marine, I might be sentimentally attached to it. But I’ll price it at $200. I can’t find another real one listed for sale on the internet right now, in this forum 9 years ago, they were $300ish, so going off that I hope $200 is fair, or if not, I’m content keeping it. https://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/177020-usmc-pistol-belt-madness/

It really was, I sold it, and I’ll probably regret selling it, but I’ve hung onto to for many years. The flag had so much character and it had the perfect patina from being stored in the ww2 ammo can that it was brought home in, 70 years before. I’ve never run into one quite like it before, but it’s time for someone else to enjoy iy.
