Fritz Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Ein sauberes Stück! Ist bestimmt vorher von einem gereinigt worden, nichtsdestoweniger selten - so was habe ich noch nie angeboten gesehen, geschweige denn auf einem Flohmarkt. Die Flohmärkte heute sind abgegrast, überteuert und es wimmelt vor Fälschungen. Gibt es irgendwelche Stempelungen darauf? A clean piece. Looks like it has been cleaned, neverthelesss rare - never seen one on offer, not even at a fleamarket. Fleemarkets today have been grazed out, too expensive and full of fakes. Any stamp markings? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raven-0815 Posted July 8, 2019 Author Share Posted July 8, 2019 So was habe ich auch noch nie bekommen und erst recht nicht auf dem Flohmarkt! Das Ding lag zwischen alten Werkzeugen bei einem der allen erdenklichen Kram aus wohnungsentrümpelungen für kleines Geld angeboten hat Absoluter glücksfund! Leider keine bestempelung vorhanden,halte es aber definitiv für ein zeitgenössisches Stück 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The item lay between old tools and all sorts of junk from house clearances for a small price. Absolute lucks find. Unfortunately no stamps, but definitely a period piece. --------- Hat wohl jemand mal versucht als "Werkzeug" zu mißbrauchen. So ein Teil würde normalerweise unter lauter Werkzeug kaum auffallen! Wirklich ein Glücksfall, und hoffentlich nicht zu teuer gewesen. Ist das Stück komplett, oder fehlt ein Teil? In einem anderen Foto war noch ein Teil zum Aufsetzen, Verschluß oder Munitionsteil? Jedenfalls ziemlich rostfrei und ohne Narben oder Gebrauchsspuren. ----------- Someone probably thought they could misuse it as a tool. Such a piece would hardly be noticeable under a stack of tools! A real piece of luck, and hopefully not too expensive. Is it complete or is something missing? In another photo there was an extra part or fitting. End cap or part of ammo? In any case free of rust and no rust scars or signs of use. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
