HI Guys,
I am looking for a copy of Bellifortis which was of course published in Latin, but is there and English translation - that's the first question.
The second question is do you have a copy in Latin, but even better in English (if it exists) that you would like to sell to me?

There are a couple of facsimiles of Bellifortis manuscripts with German translations but the 1967 one by Götz Quarg is supposed to be unreliable. A 1430 copy in Munich has been digitized https://www.digitale-sammlungen.de/en/details/bsb00090291
The Latin is supposed to be difficult but on your budget you could hire a PhD student or a lecturer to translate the bits that you wanted. I would offer but I would have to bill an hour or two just to figure out "what resources are available and how hard would this be?"
If you're happy with a translation of a German copy, there is one in the HEMA Bookshelf Talhoffer Companion Volume, along with an article by Michael Chidester discussing the text.
