Very nice condition nick,can i ask you a question ,whats the reason for the small bead on the pull chord

 

[waffenamt]

Jeeensy,thats very nice!

Ive seen a few smoke versions on sale round the interweb going fo around 80?

Is that a good price?

That pull cord arming bead Spott mentions,were they ever made from other materials than ceramic?

cheers

Thanks for the thumbs up.. Lee / Alan

The bead,,,,,I think it is a weight to help pass the cord through the small hole in the top collar,, mosr cords I have seen connected to the friction wire on the delay fuse
only have the knotted cord passed through it,, i'll dig out some piccs,,,, off to Lex'x site no to look for a link.

Regards

Aye-up Waffy!

The bottom bead is always ceramic, but the top bead was either lead,metal, glass or ceramic.

Cheers
