One of the last ones which i have a few of
but this one still retained its original safety
clip to stop accidental arming/timing.

The spindle unwinds at the slightest touch which
is how i think they used to function.

Super stuff Phil!
They seem to have come up well. Do you soak them in pen-oil on arrival or do you clean them up with wire brush or similar?
I also see that the stenciling is different than the ones ive seen before?
cheers

Thanks again

All of these were soaked in WD40 for two days and then 2000grade
scotch pad and oil which helps polish the ally without taking to much meat off.

Regards phil
