Feldgrau Garde Grouping

Thanks very much. The field grey uniforms of the Guards Regiments are my favourites.
All the best

In a sense, I have the same preferences as you. But the difference is that I like the Guards Regiment before 1914. That is, dark blue uniforms

I only have these two examples of the pre war (which I have posted separately before).

Hello,
Right, in this configuration, (troop with combat chinstrap), for the 1 GzF Regiment B II & III.
On the other hand:
---Officers have the fluted tip, unlike other Silver Guards or Eisenbahn regiments.
---The stars are silver, whereas they are gold on the others.
---The scales on the “officer” or parade troop chinstraps are silver, unlike those on other “silver” Guard regiments, which are gold.

In this “troop” confirguration, service or field dress, BII & III effectively, it's only the regimental stamp that can make the difference.

On the left, an enrolé helmet marked 1GzFR, the tip is higher, fancy, and the chinstrap scales are in maillechort (silver plated).
On the right, a Wehrmann helmet, marked E3 for Eisenbahn.
brass (gold) scales.
Otherwise, the helmet is identical.

Loved Garde-Landwehr helmets

Here are two felt shells. One is a Garde-Fusilier-Regiment, or Garde-Pionier-Regiment with nickel silver fittings, and the other is a 3Garde-Grenadier-Regiment, with brass fittings.


Below, comparison.
Left : An Eigentum, Extra-Helm Garde-Grenadier with the old M60 eagle model with screw-nut attachment, for Fähnrich, (identical to an officer, except for the Guards star and the point base stars, which are replaced by enlisted elements). M71 officer-style chinstrap
Right : the regulation “Kammer” model for Entlisted. (It may also be a Landgendarm)
