MZ00A1 fuze?

Hi, The lever pictured has the designation MZ00A1. Is this just a case of replacing the "2" with a "Z" or is there an actual difference? Cheers

Hello Colin,

Its a M200A1, here are examples of M200A1's using both a Z and 2 in the nomenclature. I am not sure why they did this, however I do not believe that there was a difference in the fuze design(s). Possibly just a case of the manufacturer using a Z instead of a 2 in the stamping die?

Stay safe,

Frank
