SD2A Latest one

Hear is another example of an SD2a that i have had for a while but not got around to painting it.

It has all original pins and springs and was painted a horrible silver colour.

I have decided to keep it all plain and leave the markings off.

Very tasty my friend! The fuze looks in great condition and its good to see these SD2's with the straight 41 screw-in type.
That paint looks well Phil,what is the RAL number please?


cheers

Damn shame these aren't classified as grenades. One of them would look real good on my grenade shelf. Is there a "mine disease"?

Hi Slick

Thanks mate.
This was one that is pitted but no holes and just seemed right to leave as it was as everything works in the spring dept.

The colour is RAL6006 olive grey green and it can be made up at a car paint suppliers and put into aerosol :tinysmile_fatgrin_t

Nice one Phil, thanks for showing it.

sure thing just give me a day, I lent my camera to the response team so it's about 90 to 100 miles away right now.
 
just took a pic with the cell phone, so it's kind of a bad pic.

I wished i hat a few of them on my shelf that one looks realy nice :tinysmile_fatgrin_t
One of those things that when someone wanted an SD2 they didnt want an M83,but these have become as popular if not more than the German version.
