Looking for interest for some VN-era gear.
 
I've noticed a lot of VN-era issued/surplus gear in a local second-hand store here in town, now it's not really my style, I know that there's a few collectors here that would probably love to get their hands on some.
So far I've seen a US-issue duty belt with suspenders, a standalone duty belt, a Vietnamese(not sure on this) chest rig, a canteen, and some other small trinkets.
They also have some WW2-era trousers, over-alls, a woodland BDU jacket(size small), and a US dress uniform, as well as a bayonet from what looks like a WW2-era(or possibly older) rifle.
I'm just wondering if anyone would be interested in this stuff, and if so I can get prices and possibly some pictures if need be.

*attn mods*
I posted this here because I don't have the gear to sell, but if this does belong in the classifieds, I apologize.

Can you take a pic of the bayonet and it price? I might be interested if its ww2 and US.
Thanks

I'll get in there and get some actual pics as soon as I'm in town next, but I believe it's a British WW2-era. As for the price, It's probably a bit steep but last I checked it had a $40 sticker on it. I have to go in again tomorrow morning, so I'll get pics and double-check the price.

Jesus, they want more for web gear alone than what the second-hand store here wants for the web gear/duty belt combo, with the extra canteen.

The stuff from there is unused/ lightly used military surplus or exact replica. The rarity of unused items means its value is significantly more. I posted the link so you could get an idea of what it could be worth.

All the more reason to grab some of that stuff and maybe sell it on here or ebay ;)

Good point, thanks!

@Shakal: They won't let me take pics in the store for some reason, but it is $40, and it's a WW2-era British/Canadian bayonet, that looks a lot like this one:

Enfield spike bayonet, no? Some times one of the pawn shops out here would get cool stuff like that too. Picked up a $20 AK bayonet a few years back.

Thanks PaddMadd;

It's not what i had in mind...
Was wishing it was a 1905 bayonet for a M1 garand.

Yep... the short one for the m1 garand is a 1905. (i think)
