Both the Mark II and V were made of Mazak, Zamak or Zamac was a German Trademark. The first date relates to the date of manufacture and the second date to the date of filling.

Thanks TimG didnt know Zamak was a trademark .Will the Germans try and charge us for using it ? like they did in WW1 for their fuse designs
