they sent me a helmet in that condition. I will try to restore it

very nice helmet

Sergei, Thank you for your reply. I thought it was related to rank not different regiments. I will get my Latvia co-worker to translate so I can dig deeper Thanks Mark 1 Kavalergardsky Her Majesty the Empress Maria Feodorovna Empress regiment 2Life Guard Mounted Regiment №3Life Guard Guards Cuirass...

I tend to agree with Amy. This looks like a Belarus copy. I know this will sound strange --- but it looks too good to be from India. There are always several copies from Belarus on Ebay. Some are quite convincing --- others, not so much. John :) Belarusians sell, copies themselves are made in Ukrai...

it depended on the regiment of the Guards cavalry

Passion has no price

This is exactly what you said. Money is nothing, thirst for everything

great helmet
Congratulations

I believe the stahlhelm post are two pieces riveted together through the helmet. Maybe you're right . But unfortunately I do not know anything about further findings. Anyway, I see such 91 buttons for the first time I do not understand how they were then attached to a steel helmet. Maybe someone ha...

An interesting find was found on the battlefields of one comrade. Usually they are stamped, prefabricated. The same whole, heavy It looks like casting http://smolbattle.ru/data/attachments/666/666523-a168ffcc85830380e70ba25ef497df97.jpg http://smolbattle.ru/data/attachments/666/666524-ac1c220e364f20...

Great helmet

the helmet is simply gorgeous. What could be better.

I would like to see all the same photos

I think that this is either a modern copy, or a fire helmet. Not always visible traces from the ridge, or they were well camouflaged with varnish

Hi All, New to this site... my partner purchased me my first picklehaube helmet and a few things tell me it’s a vintage fake and not original. Spike and pins wrong Spine has no vent No markings inside No screws in the spine, 1 pin at the bottom. Hopefully someone can advise if I’m right or wrong. I...

what a beauty

Baden Train Battalion Nr 14 used a Tschako from 1864 to 1903.
Tschakos were issued to the Baden Landsturm in 1914.
Were there any other Baden units that utilized the Tschako?

John

I did not see

nice collection

In Russia there was a new set of soldiers on a scale of 1-32. Toy soldiers Publius

Wow that is a great collection wish that al those helmets would be on my shelf Its a real challenge to find an original felt shako but it looks in the first impression ok to me Great find I do not know whose collection it is, but it's great. I just gave an example of a similar ersatz shako with a m...

Here on this photo too there is a shako with a metal edging

the edging of the visor on the shako is not often, but it occurs. Eagle on the shako is not a copy. I considered it carefully. I will then take a picture and show the other side

bought a shako here, what do friends say? I do not think the eagle is from him, he's a nickel, or could it be? https://scontent-waw1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t31.0-8/30167306_565100690539503_4385199729623116620_o.jpg?_nc_cat=0&oh=f76c247f4bcd140bb2cbab31755304e4&oe=5B729F33 https://scontent-waw1-1.x...

photo from the museum. But maybe it's a shako of 1817

this is a very good copy of the shako for the war of 1812 https://antikvariat.ru/upload/resize_cache/iblock/ed7/660_660_1/img_3787_15124609366619144.jpg https://antikvariat.ru/upload/resize_cache/iblock/af8/660_660_1/img_3788_15124609366774564.jpg https://antikvariat.ru/upload/resize_cache/iblock/9d...

In Europe, after the Napoleonic wars, especially in the armies of German lands, Russian style predominated in uniform. Therefore, these shako are given out as Russians. In Russia there are also disputes between reenactors and historians on the Napoleonic wars as exactly the Russian army's shako look...

Sorry, I have to change my mind. The Chinscale and the Lionheads looks different

Sorry, but this is also not a Russian shako.

I do not see any point in discussing this shako. Kiver has no relation to the Russian army. It's unclear what

Believe me this is shako fake. He has nothing to do with the Russian shako. Such three-flame grenades were attached to a cartridge bag

Hello everybody ! . While everything is very uncommon. Maybe over time, like the new design of your favorite forum

just awesome
