It’s doable but it’s not an easy process. The big hurdle is on the German side. The German government requires an export license for all firearms. Even old ones. (I needed one for a muzzle loading pistol). To get that you will need to prove to the German government that the item is legal to...

Very nice! What kind of fur is it made out of?

Great find. Bonus to get the documentation to go with it. Congratulations SgtMajor!

Looks like you need a taller cabinet! Very nice to see the stuff in the original cartons. Congratulations!

I'd love to see some photos!

In 1884 the Saxon 1867 Cavalry saber (similar to Prussian M52) was given a quillback blade that I think was the same type blade that the KD92 used. I think that they re-used these quillback model 67 blades when they first started making the Model 92s.

Nice!

Dragoner is german for Dragoon. A type of Cavalry unit

Looks good!

Nice!

Thanks Glenn! That is excellent information!

Thanks Glenn. You are the Master!
