I like the term 'series' rather than 'type' when describing my favourite collectible..
I also like it when good friends donate to my collection also!
A big thank you to my dear friend and mentor Mick for putting this early series bomb fuze my way for the early dated 50 kilo case due in this week...

Nice and straight with working plungers and still good markings. From the stables of Rheinmetal-Borsig in 1939.
Drilled out flash tube too,so all completely inerted.Includes an unmarked gaine.

enjoy!

cheers

Wildo right away my friend!

After ive used it to hit this combi-boiler that i need on immediatly as im freezing!! :tinysmile_hmm_t2:


Just had a weigh in and the new one seems slightly lighter in weight and feels like a different material to my other?
Also that 'shield' between the fuze head on joining the body seems a different shape too??
