Firing Device help

[EODGUY]

I have three firing devices that I cannot positively identify. Anyone lend a hand? The small brass one is a simple pull device, solid brass. It is 1 1/2 inches long, The large one I think is either North Vietnamese or Viet Cong. It has a unique approach to a safety at the end. It is 4 inches long. The pin is cut inside the cylinder and bent up?? The gray one is 3 1/2 inches long. None have any markings on them.

The last one is a Schlagzünder 15 (SZ 15.02), a swiss pull time fuse lighter.

Hi,


About the first one I've read on internet (don't remember where, I should keep track) that it was made by the USA for the afghan moujahid when they fought against Russia


Regards,

Thanks, not sure I would have ever looked at Switzerland for a source. Also thanks for the note on the origin of the brass one. Hadn't heard that story, but it is certainly possible. I think I know someone who might be able to confirm the story.
