Heer Mauser 98K Cleaning Kit - Which Maker?

[AlecH]

Hi Everyone,

Picked up this rifle cleaning kit over the weekend at the local flea-market. Chain, Case, another piece all stamped KY 1940 - case is a bit grubby, inside the bottom case compartment is a oily cleaning string not shown on the pictures. I was wondering do members know the significance of the stamping KY 1940 - 1940 is clear, but KY maker's stamp perhaps? also the two bore cleaning brushes are missing. I've looked through military sites on google hoping to find them to buy, but no luck, perhaps one of the members could point me in the right direction.

Best Wishes
