The igniters are the German ANZ-29 Friction igniters and are usually used for igniting a fuze or detonator used for prepared charges

Yep, these ones are Norwegian reused. I mean, original WWII German ANZ29 used post war by the Norwegian army, for this the zinc adaptor and green plastic cap. Like the ones that I have... :nerd:

I like the inscription in red on the box you have. it says: MUST NOT BE USED IN A HANDGRENADE". I guess ther are no or litle delay on this fuse.

indeed this igniter hasn't a n y delay.
therefore he's called Zndschnuranznder 29 and for ignition of detonator cords only.
other use like this example below would have been definitely suicidal.

Very interesting, as I have no idea of Norwegian, I didnt know what the red words meant. And more interesting is the fact that these fuses were originally BZE39 fuses with the delay pellet attached on. Norwegians converted them in a no delay fuses. Many thanks Freaky for your translation. :beer:

If you unscrew the newly added tube from fuze body you see that the original delay tube has been removed. I once had a box of these as well and they all were modified to instant igninion fuzes.

Yes, I remember them... I still have one or two here. :nerd:
