Gentlemen,
This will be ultra brief as I have to be somewhere this morning. I have a question about bayonet frogs that is more directed to Richard. How many of the ‘tropical’ types (canvas/webbing) in your collection are SS marked? And what are the other types besides those shown so far?
I hope that everyone has a good day, and I’ll be back this afternoon.
FP,
I do not have any SS Tropical Frogs and I have never seen any in the collections that I have had a chance to view. However; they could very well exist. Why not?
The following are the types of SS frogs in my collection:
1. WW1 98/05 Frog SS Property Marked
2. 98/05 Camp Manufactured Frog; SS Property Marked
3. 98/05 Period Manufactured Frog; SS Property Marked
4. 98/05 White Ersatz Leather Frog; Manufacturer's Stamp & Dated 1939; SS Property Marked
5. WW1 84/98 Bayonet Frog; SS Property Marked
6. 84/98 Camp Manufactured Frog; SS Property Marked
7. 84/98 Camp manufactured Frog; Unmarked
8. 84/98 Period Manufactured Frog; MFG STAMP; SS Property Stamp.
9. 84/98 White Frog; Manufactured by A. Fisher 1938; SS Property Marked.
10. Original VZ-24 Bayonet Frog; SS Property Marked.
11. VZ-24 Camp Manufactured Bayonet Frog; SS Property Marked.
