**BOXED*MGC 68*FIREARMS QUALITY BEST METAL REPLICA**Of The Iconic WW2 Nazi German MP40 9mm Sub Machine Gun With Folding Stock By The Model Gun Company of Japan (MGC). **COCKS, STRIPS & DRY FIRES** Sn 23658:1 - 23658:1
This is not a deactivated weapon but a firearms quality, all-metal replica of a WWII German MP40 made by the Model Gun Company of Japan (MGC 68). Widely regarded to be the best MP40 replica ever made, the MGC replicas have always been highly sought after by collectors and re-enactors. Not to be confused with the DENIX replicas or the models made by Marushin of Japan, the MGC model uses pressed steel parts for the receiver and is completely strippable just like the real thing. It has fully moving parts and a full cocking and clicking action. The front sling point is missing but otherwise, it is in excellent condition with much finish remaining and tight stock movement. The gun has maker marks and faux Nazi waffenamt that would normally be found on original WW2 examples. The gun comes with its original retail box with maker and model detail. The box contains original product information leaflets & a colourful 1978 / 79 Sussex Armoury catalogue. Unfortunately as this is a replica it does fall under the restrictions of the Crime Reduction Act. This means that we can only sell it to registered re-enactors, film and theatre companies. Proof of this will be required at purchase. The price includes UK delivery. Sn 23658:1

J.O. Field was the last Colonial British Administrator of Southern Cameroons (an original portrait photo of the man is illustrated in image 1). He played a pivotal role during the final years of the British Trusteeship in the Southern Cameroons. As the Commissioner of the Southern Cameroons (1956–1961), he was the highest-ranking British official on the ground during one of the most volatile and transformative periods in West African history. He was also Special Representative at the United Nations: Because Southern Cameroons was a UN Trust Territory, Britain had to account for its administration to the UN Trusteeship Council. The 1st Battalion, The King's Own Royal Border Regiment was deployed to the Southern Cameroons in West Africa from September 1960 to May 1961. Their primary mission was to oversee elections and maintain peace during the transition to the new Independent State. Following the successful completion of the United Nations-backed elections in 1961, the battalion returned to Barnard Castle, England, in May 1961.The Vintage Dunhill Unique lift-arm lighter (Patent 390107) from the 1930’s is a rare and sought-after collectable item crafted from silver-plated brass. Patent Number 390107 belongs to the iconic Dunhill Unique lift-arm petrol lighter, which was produced primarily during the 1930s Art Deco era. The "lift-arm" design has a hinged arm which is lifted manually to uncover the wick before striking the horizontal flint wheel. These are liquid petrol / lighter fluid fuelled wick lighters. These large table / desk top lighters were manufactured decades before Dunhill switched to butane gas in 1956. Our example was presented in 1961 to the Officers of the 1st King’s Border Regiment by his honour J.O Field cmg Commissioner of the Southern Cameroons, no doubt for use in their Officers mess. The lighter measures 4” height x 3” width x just over 1” depth (with arm closed). The lighter has no damage, has original wick but is without flint and has not been tested. The base of the lighter has a turn off cover which allows access to the wick and fuel tank. The base of the lighter has the Dunhill brand name and patent detail together with ‘Made In England’.The arm of the lighter has cast ‘Dunhill’ panel and the casing is inscribed ‘PRESENTED TO THE OFFICERS OF 1 KINGS OWN BORDER REGIMENT BY HIS HONOUR J.O. FIELD CMG COMMISSIONER OF THE SOUTHERN CAMEROONS 1961’. The price for this interesting Officer’s Mess piece includes UK delivery. Sn 23507 (Jewellery drawer office)

While the famous Siege of Kut-al-Amara had ended two years earlier in April 1916, Amara remained a vital occupied town where thousands of soldiers were stationed or treated. Although the major fighting had moved north toward Mosul, Amara was a frequent stop for units like the 13th (Western) Division and various Indian Army brigades as they rotated through the region. Many soldiers who died of disease or wounds in these hospitals during early 1918 are now commemorated at the Amara War Cemetery, which contains over 4,600 burials.
