A Few Pics of Part of My Collection...

[pzjgr]

Here are a few pics I grabbed of part of my collection as I was setting up my new Man Cave in our attic (we bought the house a little over a year ago, and I finally got the attic finished off, and moved all my stuff up there, and am in the process of setting it all up)

The one pic shows some of my German ordnance, the other shows my Wall 'O 98k's....

All the MG's are dummies (deacts, but not usually as nicely done as over there) as there is no full auto in NYS, but thats ok, since I shot plenty of FA in the Army, and I am happy with just looking at and playing with them. Plus with the cost of FA over here, I cannot afford it! A few nice FA's here could buy you a nice house!

Well, check out the position of the comfy arm chair! It's not "facing" the TV is it? :bigsmile:

Nicely set out and display!

Now that's a good Man Cave!
Cheers

Thanks guys! I do love just hanging out up there, I can just sit and look at my stuff for hours.

That is a bomb fuze pot (sadly empty right now...I need to find the fuze to put in it!) and a complete Incendiary...

I also have my workbench up there....in my old house, before I was married and especially before we had our little guy early this year, I would literally spend almost every night and most weekends putzing around in my room, working on guns, repairing stuff, building models, and just enjoying it all. I don't have that luxury so much anymore....

But hopefully, as my little one grows up, he will have similiar interests, and we will be able to spend many hours up there hanging out and watching war movies and playing with toys....

I've attached a few pics of him getting started....

ETA I will get better pics of the 2 and 3,7cm stuff and post them soon...

Grreeeaaat collection pzjgr, Me likey guns. Also if you sit your son at that machine gun, say every day, I think you'll have a "little buddy" to collect with. Collecting militaria and such is great, fatherhood is "the bomb"............Dano

Nice Wall O' 98k's! It reminds me of an old surplus store I used to visit when young. The Archie Bunker chair looks very nicely broken in and comfy!

Very well sorted out. I also enjoy the rifles too. Good job!
