My Flak

OK Philippe, here's my Bunt Juncker Flak:

Into the game...

Here's mine; also without the rivets on the gun breech.
Weight on mine is 38.6 grams.

Thanks Tim an Eric,

So where beginning to see some patterns here

1. Without rivets, short feathers on right inner wing, SW mark, die struck buntmetal (Rich, John, Eric & Tim's badge)

2. Without rivets, long feathers, SW mark, probably cast Nickel Silver (my badge)
(cfr. this thread: http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...ad.php?t=32288

3 With rivets, long feathers, SW mark, die struck buntmetal (Frank's and Skip's Badge)

4 Same as above but SW 68 mark (Toby's badge)


Any other SW68, or nickel silver badges around to see if the above patterns stay consistant ?

Thanks

Hi Guys,

Don't tell me we are going to let this thread die also before reaching final conclusions

Oh well I'm probably the only one who still needs to learn, all the experts are probably long past this stage.

Well, here is mine...: Seems to be a twin to Frank's badge; Buntmetall, the rivets are there, slightly twisted swastika...



Cheers,

I think all the experts each have a different variant of the badge. How many variants can possibly exist?

The Jos badge and mine although they apprear entirely wierdly different in color, both exhibit a nice detail to the finishing.

Except on Eric's badge which I just can't see well enough, all these appear good if you go by fit and finish.

Like the pilotbadges we've some different types here...even the fatter claw at Mikael's badge like the 3rd pattern Pilotbadge is present IMO..
