Thanks. I have never tested it, but it looks complete, and in good order. Snoopy

Hello I am new at this forum, and I would like to show you some items from my modest collection. I posted a couple yesterday, and here comes another. I hope you like it. It's a handheld signallamp used by the Luftwaffe. The lamp is marked with a Luftwaffe "Fl." number. The manufacturer was "Zeiss Jkon A. G., Goerzwerk Berlin" Snoopy

Hello This item won't win any beauty contest, but I find it interresting. It's a gyro from the guidence system of a Henschel Hs 293, guided antishipping bomb. These weapons where carried by multiengined aircraft, like the Focke wulf Fw 200C-6 Condor, Dornier Do 217E-5 and the Heinkel He 177A-5 Greif. A small shipment of these weapons was delivered to the germans in Norway in 1945. After the war they where taken over by the norwegians, and used for instructional purposes. My gyro allmost certainly comes from one of these.

Hello I would like to show you all, a weapon related item from my collection. It's a spent cartridge collector, for the Mg 15, aircraft machinegun. It took me a long time before I found out what it was for. I was offered it, on a trade along other Luftwaffe items. I only took it because it had a weird looking shape, and that it was luftwaffe blue. I hope you like it. Snoopy

The "BA" is not a maker code. "BA" is short for "Betriebsamt". A lot of equipment has this marking. One other marking that is often found, is "BAL", short for "Betriebsamt Luftwaffe". I guess that they where some sort of aproval or patentoffices.
