made some, such as ppsh drum pouch, gymnasterka soldiers shirt, early war y strap for equipment belt, rifle and ppsh sling, made own helmet from fibre-glas, own back-pack (big sack with shoulder straps!!)
altered others items to work/look right.......leather waist belt, gas mask /haversack bag,
and what ever else that was beyond my boy-scout baDGE ABILITY, I found on ebay or at gunshows, or from other members as used. ( russian trousers, leggings , jackboots, poncho /plascha , wedge hat-pilotka )
thats my story and applies to my ww2 german gear as well.
