Waffen SS Uniforms. Where to get?

**DrStranglove** · Sep 15, 2008

Got talked into going to a reenactment in Ga and they told me they would like a few Germans. As I was going to buy a costume anyway, though I would get one. Any links would be helpful! Google came up with a few but I figure you all would know who to buy from and who not to!

Since you wanna re-enact, you'll have to go fairly accurate... I know a few of those guys and they expect a certain level of accuracy. So go here:

http://www.atthefront.com/

If you don't wanna spend a whole lot, can live with it not being accurate, go here:

http://www.surcompany.com/

I used the latter for background uniforms in my student film. Some of the stuff for the officers is pretty accurate, though (the Em, not so much).

This is all I've got on this Mac, but here's one of the uniforms I bought from surcompany.com. As I said in an earlier post, some of the stuff is really nice for a great price. I was pretty happy with the Allgemeine SS uniform seen in the cap (even more happy with the actor acting in German

)--but you won't want one of them for re-enactment. And yes, I do know that these weren't used in combat. But since I was inspired by Indy as a kid (when I actually came up with the idea), I decided to style it after Vogel from The Last Crusade.

And please excuse the crummy screencap [from a letterboxed source, no less].

It looks a bit better in motion.

(And it's going on six years old...)

Shoei makes the best MP/Stg44....long out of production and tough to find, though. They do pop up on ebay from time to time and usually sell in the $1200 -$1500 price range. I finally got one up here after years of searching...I'll never sell it...it's a fantastic piece. Field strips like the real thing, love it!

Apart from that, I've seen a few resin repro Stg44s on ebay...they look OK. You'd probably have better luck finding a nice MP40. AEM makes an inexpensive all metal version that you can find on ebay for $100 or so. I have a Marushin version. There's also the MGC version that is tough to find but very nice.

I know you've probably made your decision on which retailer to purchase your uniform from, but like many others in this thread have stated, I too would recommend At the Front. I just ordered my M42 jump suit and couldn't be happier. The quality and materials are outstanding. (of course there ARE cheaper alternatives)

Concerning the MP44, here's the only thing I came up with - which you've probably seen - but it seems like a decently priced static piece or for your impression. (it appears to be non-firing)

Both the Shoei and Ultima models (which were quite expensive), seem to have sold out long ago...

Also for uniforms and equipment try

and for some reviews of vendors go to

Here is some of my uniforms.

**Chief Bast** · Sep 17, 2008

Great shots! It looks like you have a diverse collection. Thanks for sharing.

**DrStranglove** · Sep 20, 2008

I put that greatcoat together, too. Greatcoats are pretty expensive [when done well, anyway], so it can be cheaper to do it yourself (depending on how accurate the re-enactors want you to be).

**Sgtjmb1982** · Apr 20, 2010

The best place to find replica uniforms is atthefront.com
Also for insignia changes epicmilitaria.com is great. They are in the UK, but there shipping cost aren't bad.
If ever interested in Russian Militaria if you wanna pretend to be a russian sniper defending stalingrad or maybe you've seen Enemy at the Gates too many times, tridentmilitaria.com is great and so it frontofrussia.com is impressive in prices. Hope that helps

I don't know how accurate (appearance wise) this is but here's an airsoft version of the MP44 with real wood stocks to boot. http://shop.ehobbyasia.com/other-gun...eg-mp056b.html

**DrStranglove** · Apr 23, 2010

Cool thanks. I never did find a good MP-44 for cheap.

**philip7** · Jun 7, 2010

Hi DrStranglove, I would recommend that you talk to the guys in the reenacting group before you spend a lot of money on uniforms. I am from GA and I am a reenactor in the 18th Luftwaffe Field Division group out of Nashville. I know from experience that buying before you talk to some of the veteran members could be a mistake. Many groups have authenticity requirements about what types of uniforms are allowed. No one will criticize you for wearing the wrong thing if you are new. But don't be surprised if some of the guys talk to you about the proper way. Not to make them seem rude. But they put a lot of research and money into "looking the part" and they expect that from other members as well. Most people will be supportive and even offer you some uniform items or gear as a loaner until you can afford your own. It is an expensive hobby. But definitely the emphasis will be on authenticity.

With that being said, an airsoft weapon may or may not be permitted. It wouldn't be in my group for sure. Please check with the SS group you are participating with and be sure before you spend 1200 bucks on an airsoft MP44. Not trying to discourage you. It is a fun and rewarding hobby. Just do your research and get things as you can. You don't need everything for your first event.
