East German Collection

Post by LanceF250 »

I finally have enough East Germans to consider them a sub collection worth posting. I believe the bases are coved, however the orange handle variant has eluded me, so far.

Included above the bayonets are sealed replacement scabbards.

Great start, but be careful! It could lead to collecting all sorts of minor variations and don't forget the Holy Grail, the KM87. Mike

I finally located an orange example for the collection. Here is an updated group photo, as well as my stash of parts.

Congrats on finding the orange grip. All this E.G. stuff has been out of production for a while now. All the good stuff is getting harder to find, most have disappeared into collections. Mike
