More stuff from digging through the collection it would seem I am still missing quite a bit (it must be elsewhere)-

Here in this photo we have: 6 petro/oel and winter oil tins, 4 more Kleinen Waffenwerkzeugsatz, 3 more petrobuechse for MG-42, 1 battery box for MGZ, a few cloth gunners pouches, oil cans for gunners pouches, laufschuetzen (hot barrel pads) for gunners pouches, spare parts tins for E-tins, a gaggle of slings (all with waffenamts).

I still have to find a few more petrobuechse, 1 complete kaliber zylindersatz, 1-2 more Kleinen Waffenwerkzeugsatz, 41 gurtmaschine and quite a few more tools (patronenauszieher of different types, Hakenschlussel, kaliberzylinder,etc.) I have more stuff than I know what to do with it would seem?

Thanks for sharing that stuff. Please keep it up. If you ever start thinking about that 4-letter word "Selling" think of me.
Great stuff...
