I'm with Dave on this one -
Excellent collection of 41A manufacturers, great to see someone else also shares the interest.

I'm pretty certain that the ?gy one is kgy as I have one marked as such in my own collection.

I wonder if anyone else can add to the list of manufacturers of the SD2 fuzes.

regards Kev

I'm not able to upload photos for the time being, however if you click on the following link to a previous thread, see the third photo in the second post and you will see the markings on my example....

Dave I'd think that if Alistair B could get hold of SD2's now they would be a little more than that.
If you plug the price into an inflation calculator it comes out at 650 in today's money.........so you got 2 for the price of 1!!
Nice butterfly's by the way.
Dave.

Two wonderful examples there Dave, well done. I have not seen a cut down 'banana wing' version other than the one you have, so its good to see they did that version too. So another one to keep an eye out for.
Always liked the green with yellow/red stripes version you have, nice condition too that one.

Nice pick ups - anyone got a time machine, Jeensey?????? Ben???? Dave?? anyone? LOL!!!!!!

Today kicked together with 41A, ideally suited for SD2, whether it is from?
Hard rubber material, signed by German manufacturers.
I do not know what to call it in English.

I just picked up a few butterfly bits and pieces at Stoneleigh, am well happy with them. The body is one of the HE versions, hard to find.
