    plaque identification help

    I received this as a gift for Christmas from a co-worker. His father was a WW2 vet and he (my friend) thought I'd appreciate it....

    It looks hand-made...just wondering if it has any significance or if anyone could identify it? I'd love to know more about it...it's approx 6 inches square...

      Shooting Prize

      ralvarez,
      What you have is a "Company level" Shooting Prize (for the 8mm Mauser obviously) awarded to someone in the 2nd Co., Infantry Regt. 23 on 16.9.36.

      I had it's twin brother a few years ago (tip of rifle was broken on mine).
      Certianly a nice original shooting prize plaque....not super rare or anything, but
      still very collectible.

      The 23rd Regt. was part of the 11th Inf. Div. based in Allenstein, Wkr. I.
      Nice gift for sure!
