I am after a better picture photo of the type B Buck igniter that has one groove around the body and being shorter than the normal commonly seen type A that has 3 grooves, also type B has its glass vial resting on its side rather than sitting upright as with type A.
There is a manual showing a drawing of these two Buck igniters together but the drawings show a distorted view to how an original should look especially comparing to type A. Any one have anything.
