FAKE Stamps-Soviet, Finn SA, German, Italian, US, British, /|\ , Garand, 1911

Guys one think to keep in mind is that in order for this shop to comply with the polish penal code is to make them within 80% of the original. Otherwise they could be charged with spreading Nazi ideology. They could do it on outdoor market level but not in the online store. Polish criminal justice system is no joke when it comes to this things.

If you look carefully all the German stamps are not accurate as the originals. They will fool a "closet nazi fanatic" but not educated gun collector.

Brownell is selling fake waffen stump for years and none is concerned because they are not accurate.

Did anyone notice that swastica is absent from this stamps?
 
This is only one maker of several selling fake stamps and the others are very good. You're not out of the woods yet and never will be!

Don't forget all the other countries stamps that are already out there for a long time.

Also the numbers and letters are there for renumbering bolts.
 
25 years ago i had bought a M 44 Moisin Nagant in nice shape for $75 bucks at the local hardware store. It was still covered with lots of cosmoline and when I got it off, low and behold there were German stamps on the rifle. As its a 1945 build, its highly unlikely that the markings are legit but you never know. As the rifle was covered in grease it sure wasn't being touted as a capture rifle. Its a good shooter though.
 
There was an Austrian contractor for the Germans who made Iron Crosses and other medals and decorations during WW 2.

When the collecting craze started in the 50s, he dusted off his dies and began producing metals and decorations again to the original specifications.

He substituted sapphires for diamonds though.
 
US&S 1911A1 (Union Switch & Signal 1911A1)

http://www.turnbullmfg.com/gun/union-switch-signal-1911-a1/



The Union Switch & Signal company of Swissvale Pennsylvania, primarily made railroad signaling equipment but received a contract on May 5, 1942 for the manufacture of 200,000 M1911A1 pistols. A total of 55,000 Union Switch and Signal pistols were produced. These pistols were serial numbered from 1041405 to 1096404. U.S.&S. pistols are the second rarest of the M1911A1 pistols produced (55,000 total production). Only the Singer manufactured 1911A1 is rarer (500 produced). The Union Switch & Signal 1911A1 does not have the crossed cannons ordnance stamp even though the ordinance department standardized this marking in late 1942.

Most of the early pistols up through about serial 1060100 did not receive the “P” proof on the slide and frame. From about 1060100 to about 1082000, the “P” proof was stamped on the left side of the frame near the magazine catch and on left edge of the slide near the rear sight, near where the where the curved portion of the slide meets the flat. The location of the “P” on the slide was the result of a poorly drawn ordnance drawing showing the placement of the stamping.

This US&S 1911A1 has been completely restored to original factory condition complete with all the correct factory frame & slide markings. This pistol just as it did when it left the factory in 1943. This is indeed a rare pistol and would make a fantastic addition to any 1911 collection.
 
Actually Thanks for posting this information. This info makes all German rifles less valuable. This information is a double edge sword. It would be best for everyone if you never posted this links. All knowledgeable collectors knew it anyways that there is plenty of FAKE stamps around. Specialists will always recognize real from fake. Thanks for making my real collection less valuable and harder to sale now
 
It's been posted on all the other Big US Gun Forums for years, so nothing new unless you live under a rock and have tunnel vision,

AND!

only read one gun forum!

Time to Wake Up and Smell The Coffee!

You sound confused and contradict yourself in your post below. Unless you're protecting someone who is humping rifles, the more you know the better.
An Undicked with Rifle or Pistol speaks for itself, so you have nothing to worry about, unless it's been Dicked with...

There are a few of those in Canada. The only real questions is why these thing exist in the first place. Many firearms coming from different countries in conditions from worn to refurbed at different times with humped markings selling for no more than mundane examples.
 
Just for claification, are these for wood parts only?. If you look at the stamps I don't think you could do much stamping on hardened steel...but I could be wrong.
