This is the RARE Early Post War West German Mess kit, well known amongst ww2 German Army Reenactors as an actual issued real military grade mess kit identical in every way to the actual German Army Original ww2 Mess Kit!!

This even has the makers designation and date in the identical position to how the original ww2 mess kits were marked!!

Original Paint

The fixing points for the wire handle, on either side of the mess kit are correct to ww2 German...please check.

Authentic Goverment Military genuine issue.

Identical Spec to Original ww2 German Army Mess kits.

Aluminium material as early to mid war originals.

I've am an ex-ww2 German reenactor of 20 years portraying WW2 German SS, ww2 German Heer and ww2 German Fallschirmjager.

I have collected both original ww2 German field kit for the best part of 26 years and also the best quality repro field kit from all around the world...and I can state this is 1 to 1 accurate German military issue kit....same as the German ww2 kocheshirr issue...which reflects its rarity and accuracy.

It is important to state that the Post-War German Army used several versions of the famous ww2 German mess kit over the post-wars years, but this is the rare ww2 Accurate model!!

Perfect example for the discerning reenactor who wants to portray accurate field items without buying both expensive original and precious WW2 German Field kit.
