Gordon Williamson Posted December 2, 2007 Author Share Posted December 2, 2007 Thirty views so far and no want willing to hazard a guess ? I'll give a clue - its a maker name on the reverse, not a number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon Williamson Posted December 2, 2007 Author Share Posted December 2, 2007 Very good guess, (and I suspect what most would think), but no. It is Tombak by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erik Krogh Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 OK, Gordon,I'll "hazard" a guess. Is it a Beco? Don't know what their U-Boat badge characteristics are, but I believe that they would mark their name in script, not number. Also, the eagle has a rather big beak-o ;-)It's a shot in the dark...All The Best,Erik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Williamson Posted December 3, 2007 Author Share Posted December 3, 2007 BINGO! Well done Erik. It is indeed a Beco. A rare beast indeed.Unfortunately I was never able to get a good enough quality image of one to use for Torpedo Los! Weitze had one last year, but someone beat me to it.

Martin W Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 Good guess Erik.Looks like another one to add to the list of manufacturers.Regards,Martin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John R Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 (edited) Great informaton. Something new all the time so the research is not over yet. Is it possible to get a better image of the Beco mark?John Edited December 6, 2007 by John Robinson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
