Default For those who need help to be loudmouthed....

A megaphone, listed as being Canadian WW2. The seller claims that non USA bidders can deal with them direct to avoid eBay's limitations on sales to non USA residents. They also make a reference to "megaphones", so they may have more than one.
Usual "no connection" disclaimer applies.

I tried to buy one and I got a screen telling me that I have to live in the US. Seems our intelligent people who create these listings wont sell military vehicle parts to anywhere outside of the USA. Heaven forbid a mega phone be used in some anti US demonstration.

Absolutly stupid. But it made me feel good about our own country. At least we "don't" stupid laws like this one.

I know a bit of a rant, but come on its a loud speaker and an unpowered on at that.

I have one of these from years back. They are usually C/i\ marked if I recall. Makes a neat kit item in the carrier.

As their ad says on ebay, phone them. They will ship something like this up to Canada, but ebay rules are following the US state dept regulations re sale of military hardware. I tried to buy a track adjusting cam from a US seller a couple years back and the seller told me he could not sell out of the country. Also, if you check the US govt auction site, they also indicate on things like bayonets, or even lowly army trailers, that they require end user certificates and cannot sell out of country.

The world has truly gone mad.

We must ensure that items like these NEVER fall into the wrong hands! We'd never hear the end of it.

Would be nice to be able to combine two hobbies: collecting militaria and get some control over the kids . . . maybe
