Servus, You can take some steel wool to the Swiss goggles to get the black paint off, then replace the cloth straps with elastic straps...then they will look like German GJ goggles. Also, Blitz Bikes sells repros of the metal slit snow goggles: http://www.blitzbikes.com/id33.htm http://www.blitzbik...

Hello,

I have another question on the Gebirgsjager but this time about the goggles:

http://70.87.163.50/forums/showthread.php?t=190304

Does anyone know where to buy any one of them except the first one (I already own)

Thanks

It is actually a bit greener in person, but I am happy with it; my first Burgmutze.

Okay thanks for all your help, and I just want to say that I am very very new at the GJ's, and my expertice is in the Afrikakorps! (Just because some of my questions that i asked are very obvious)

One more question on the cap and then I am done. I just bought this Heeresbergfuhrer Cap Stick Pin and I have never seen it before so I just asumed that it was never issued and just to keep it as a niknak, but they did tell me in an email that it was a private purchase item that soldiers bought...

:twisted: :twisted: Well then I guess I am going with the 5. GJ in Italy, because I got both right after you guys commented on the hiki shop, Well a learning experience I suppose! :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: I got this one: http://cgi.ebay.ca/WW2-German-Gebirgsjager-Officer-Type-Bergmutze-Cap-59-/...

I am still awaiting my T-shaped officer insignia for it and I deceided I am going to hand sew the insignia on because I would be a bit embarrased to bring in a WWII German Hat and an insignia to the cleaners... First off was there a proper way to hand sew the insignia? I managed to find a picture of...

First picture, to the right, the white cap. is it some kind of winter müztencover? Servus Kaiserjäger, Yes...the Bergmütze was issued with a white camo cover.

Hi,

I found this interesting little site that has all the panzerfaust instructions; Bedienungsanleitung Panzerfaust 60

Comments?

okay thanks a ton! That means all I need are the shorts!
Any idea where to get the shorts?

And after seeing some pictures of the hat I am
decideing not to buy it.

Hi,

I am looking at another bergmutze, but this time for my Crete Impression, First off is this a good repo, or just some more cheap chinese replica?

Or should I get an afrikakorps m40 cap and stick an edelweiss on it, because I am very new to GJ?
Thanks! 5. GJ Divsion here I come!

Good quality and cheap seldom go hand in hand. The newer Sturm versions are reasonable if you can live with the error in the pattern. The SMWholesale ones are great but cannot be considered cheap. Original ones are not hard to find, often for reasonable money if you dont want a super minty example....

What store do you guys think would have a good quality one, but cheap?

THanks
