Value Check: Vintage Canadian Army RCASC Jacket (HQ 4C1B6) - German Made, Rare Unit ID

After doing some research on this iron cross I have in my collection, I have discovered the personalized sketching on the back is the German Soldiers rank and initials and from what appears to be his feldpost number, which is 58017. I traced this feldpost number and it was for the 

58017

(12.3.1943-7.9.1943) 13. Kompanie Grenadier-Regiment 338,
(8.9.1943-22.4.1944) 18.11.1943 gestrichen, wurde Fp.Nr. 21048.

Interesting news on this Iron cross 1st class etching on the back 

Early Allgemeine SS officer visor *NOT MINE*

Looking at buying my first Luftwaffe flak badge and am noticing a bunch of them just don’t look right, my gut is telling me these 2 also look off, but I can’t put my finger on it. 

Both 1 and 2 have very different looking catch, and number 2 has that kind of catch that Floche faked usually have, but I cannot find evidence of floche making Luftwaffe flak badges. 

My 2nd red flag is if you look at the barrel on the second badge, there are strange lines going across the barrel, leading me to believe it’s a cast fake. 

What do you guys think on these 2?

Need help with identifying these 2 Luftwaffe flak badges on what makers they are possibly and if they are fake or not.

This is my relic mp40. It's in very good solid condition for a relic. Eventually I will have the stock moving and I will put on the rest of the bakerlight furniture

Waffen SS officer visor

Is this original and if so how can you tell?

Got a flecktarn vest for £10 but I’ve never seen one before, is it real?

One newspaper says it's for the "East Prussian troops" and talks about liberated Danzig / Next one is a local issue from Bromberg in Poland after occupation. The obituaries all claim the people were "murdered by Polish bandits"

Waffen SS SD M40

So this buckle here has the construction of 2 piece parade style, but there appears to be some sort of darkening applied only on the front. This is not paint, and those that were painted included the reverse. Could this just be patina? Also, I know most were aluminum and I am assuming this one is too, not 100% tho. Thoughts?

Army EM belt/buckle ID

I acquired two interesting pieces today! One is a (Dachau produced) Temporary Concentration Camp Gaurd Collar Tab and the second piece is a German/Finnish Nordfront Badge.

It's not in the best condition but it's a solid original one and for only £325 I really can't complain.
It has the name g. Rolke engraved on the handle so maybe that's how it belonged to?
The markings are:

Jacobs & Co.

Solingen-Gr.

RZM 

M7/118

Just bought this NSDAP party badge from Queencity militaria for $100. It has a repaired back pin so the maker is no longer visible. How’d I do? Also, does anyone know if it’s possible to identify maker without the number showing? If so can you please let me know how I can research it? Thanks!
