well spotted Q,

I shouldnt think it should go for more than a tenner though?
I would like one of those longer versions for my collection.

Old thread but i need to bump it for some info!
Steve,can you please tell me more about the fuze in post#5?
What are those `wire` looking bits attached to the fuze?

btw

The tail that Q tipped us off about ended up going for about 41 and i got `snipered` off somebody with it.:tinysmile_angry2_t:
I hate those guys that use `sniper programmes` and i run up the auction when i can to leave them high and dry!:eviltongue::hahaha:

How did this AZ63 fit to a standard IB fuze?
Was it attached by machining the existing fuze?(13 or 83)

Hi Paul
Its a push fit into a recess in the IB bomb body and contained nothing more than Bickford cord ,
 
Detonating cord , like a slow match composition containing gun powder , you see the cowboy films when they blow bridges up thats det cord lit with a flame
 
Ahh!,I know what you mean.

Can i convert a 1kg into the other version for display,if i had the bits such as an AZ63 and a long set of tails?:tinysmile_twink_t2:
