Could just be someone's project/ attempt at piecing together a baden pioneer officer for some unknown reason.

If I didn't have to pay rent I'd be pursuing it myself haha

Outstanding work Joel!

With the amount of spammers popping up lately it seems like it should be implemented if possible.

I used a poor choice of words, I was more referring to there being some way to prevent people from joining, like an admin having to approve someone's account before they can join/ post.

It has been a long time since I joined the forum so I cant remember, but is the forum free to join or is there some degree of a vetting process before people are allowed to just join?

Does anyone happen to have a spare field badge that they would be interested in selling?

Does anyone happen to have or know of a bavarian artillery lanyard for sale?

I unfortunately got it taken out from under ms, the auction ended while I was asleep.

If you are regretting your decision then I would suggest emailing him, he is very fair and I'm sure would give you a refund and change the description once it's relisted. He usually does a good job with his imperial stuff imo. He has some other great examples currently available.

Thats the same helmet, notice the damage to the liner, the same spike base stud that's mismatched, the wear to the chinstrap, also the semper talis scroll. Emedals has had that for sale for a while and has dropped the price at least 2 times since they originally got it in with a large collection...

Griffins militaria does have an outstanding reputation, I'm sure he will take the helmet back and adjust the description accordingly.

If everything else on the helmet is still correct then it still has the potential to be a garde pioneer helmet which I would think we be valued at around 1000 maybe a little less, you'd need to swap that mismatched spike stud as well though.

I do occasionally buy parts like that when I have the extra cash to throw at them but unfortunately did not at the time.

I believe a set was available on French or German ebay not long ago, but I passed them up as I needed curved ones for my DR.24 helmet.

Yes! My mistake.

Hopefully it ends up being a steal! If it is you'll be having the same struggle I am with looking for silver chinscales.

I do believe we discussed this before but I couldn't quite remember so I figured I should be safe and ask before I start to sew everything back up.

Does anyone have any ideas for what to do with the cracking/ crazing and staining in the shell by chance? Otherwise I'll begin sewing the liner and visors back on today.
