    FG-42s aren't impossible to find. In fact a FJ collector/friend of mine has one and is about to get another for his collection. I also know a dealer in Calif who has at least one for sale as we speak. Also, I think George Peterson has one for sale.

    The plane parts look like Me-109 parts. Apparently there is part of the aluminium radio box with holes for the electrical wires. Also I recognize part of the articulated rudder.

    Its ver ygood you are safe with the firearms...do you have to dust them frequently? I'd be dusting mine constantly, which is why they are in safe. That way I can't see if they are getting dusty. How many of your guns are deactivated? Aside from poor rifling in a couple of mine, all of them are operable.

    I might get rid of that horrible computer from the last century blocking most of my space(It used to be an office where i have my ww2 collection now). So i will have much more space for my stuff, i started with 4 shelfs in the office in about 2 years ago and the past years i have slowly taken over the entire room >:)

    Thank you, i guess alot of people think i am just a spoiled brat that gets his parents to pay for everything, but they are wrong. I use my own money to buy everything(If something costs 1 dollar or something, my dad usually buys it for me).

    Hi Vegar, you have a lot of good stuff. I picked up an old looking Norwiegan flag at the fleamarkt the other week, I'll have to take some pics and post it for your opinion some time.
