Koblenz pictures

[Charlie_Brown]

Well I finally got round to it,

These are my images taken in the Bundeswehr technical museum. I have included only BW phots, I know this is a militaria forum but I thought it might be nice to have these here.


I highly recomend this museum, a must see if youre visiting the north west of Germany.

Thanks for posting! I was there in 1992 and unfortunately that was before digital cameras or my love of all things BW. That means my collection of pictures is both small in size and in number

I love that early model G1 magazine carrying system. I've never seen anybody experiment with offset vertically aligned magazine pouches like that. Very interesting and, I'm guessing, super rare. I don't think I've even seen a picture of one before now.

Great shot of the 1st Model parka. I have one but the epaulettes were cut off so it's nice to see an example in one piece.

And who wouldn't want that closet? Interesting to see that the soldier (or curator) used two sets of Obergefreiter badges to get the rank of Oberfeldwebel. Neat.

Got an original box of the "Kellen" or "Kasperklatschen" on the Feldjäger-pic.
I mean these Red/White round on a wooden handle carried in the Belt. they come in the original marked Paperbags.

Is that some type infrared scope on the M1 carbine? Looks a little like Zielgerät 1229 ("Vampir") for StG44. Any more information?

Yes Klaus, the device on the carbine (then called M3) is a infrared device...developed in the 40ies by the US it was also used - or at least tested - by the BW.
