Dealers: Caveat! Even expert militaria dealers cannot be 100% sure about some items so reproductions may slip through. It is always important for the collector to do your research before purchasing!

Please note the legislation in Ireland regarding deactivated firearms. You will need garda permission in writing to own a deactivated firearm. If you buy a deact somewhere you will also need an Article 7 authorisation to bring the deact into the country. Otherwise you may ask a firearms dealer to do it for you.

It is a French company that publishes books and DVDs about military uniforms and equipment.

I found them after seeing one of their great books in the local library about the American Paratroopers in WWII.

http://livres.histoireetcollections.com/publication/2479/d-day-paratroopers-the-americans.html

It had full colour pictures from the war and models wearing full equipment and uniforms. The company is French, but this book was in English. The book was a good quality hardback.

I looked around online and the prices some site were asking were crazy.

I have not bought anything from this company, but they do
ship to Ireland, according to their website.
You can download their colour catalog here. It is a 25MB Adobe pdf file, and it is in French.
