    With the Germans you can wear canvas y straps from 1943ish onwards or use canvas stuff as leather shortages meant canvas was used

    When you mention repro kar98 bayonets aren't good, I recommend you to see some of the ones At the Front has. They're great. I seen one and thought it was an original. I use a ab44 bayonet myself. But saying all repros are bad is a myth. Your comment on postwar mess kits is flawed. Many postwar variants are identical to my originals. I use a 63 dated mess kit that is identical besides being dated 63. Correct lugs, handle, shape and size.

    I’m a big proponent for using originals over reproductions for field gear. First, they obviously look correct , second, when I attend public display re-enactments, I like to show off the real thing to the public as well as have the curious public get to touch and hold the real deal. Field gear is still, for the most part, affordable and plentiful.... and when the price differences compared to some reproductions versus originals, for just a few dollars more, you might as well get the original item, not to mention the investment factor on original items you acquire will almost always increase in worth as opposed to reproductions that decrease in value as soon as you touch it.

      World War Guy yeah well the ss average is probably like over 100 due to the ss mass killing. But the army of axis power risked a lot of things due to bad planning, so realistically speaking they didn’t kill that much people before dying unless they operated tanks or artillery.
