WW2 HEER impression

WW2 HEER impression

So after the winter of slowly collecting stuff, I think I am finally set for the year.

what are the stuff on the back just wondering?
Gas mask can,
Sleeping mats
Water bottle
and not sure what the light beige colour stuff is...


Anyways great job on your reenact kit, although helmet seems not right, might be because of the cover

Being 65 years old, the horsehair is still in Excellent condition.

Tornister - Backpack
Zeltbahn - tent/poncho
GasMask
Canteen
Mess Kit
Bread Bag

As for the helmet, like the actual ww2 helmets they have a glare that makes it easier for snipers to spot. I got splinter camo helmet cover.

With the young look of some of you re-enacters, you should be moved to Volksturm batallions.

So we've got around 9 German troops in Manitoba? Obviously I'm behind enemy lines as I'm the only Allied trooper here (after Stealth sold his 101st AB impression).

I got them from who ever could sell for the cheapest... Tunic/Pants and helmet on ebay from china. Gas can: from someone who was selling off there stuff locally. Y-Straps and Tornister, off of ebay ACTUAL WW2 shipped from Belgium. Helmet cover on ebay from UK. Canteen from someone in the US, paying with Western Union made it not cheap anymore (at least I got it). Everything else was from a local seller, millitarytour.com

www.militarytour.com

the K98 is by Tanaka. Having the Marushin would have been nice but in reviews people who use it are more concerned about not losing the shells then just playing. Yes you lose a bit of the realism affect of it not using shells, but at least you are not bothered to much about firing rounds, and replacement mags are simple to get in comparison to finding the shells for sale.

Very nice. I do like it. Not that I'm a WWII expert by any means, but it looks very authentic to me.
