WaA4 alone is Waffenamtpruf mark assigned to Artillery if i remember right.

How big parts are these?

[Hans Zeug]

Antitankgun.

Are these parts from the prewar anti tank rifle ? Those parts are in the large tobacco tin (cleaning tin) that I have.Regards Hans.

These also came in a large cleaning kit,I'm not sure if they belong there,but cut they be for the Panzerbuische M 39?

I picked up an MG E-tin back in the 90's which had these same parts in.

Clearly an extractor and firing pin, but I have no idea to what weapon they belong, mine also are very well marked with WaAmts.

I would be interested to find out their origin aswell.

Cheers,

Mark.

WaA4 was the inspector at BSW (i.e. the old Simson & Ce as appropriated by the NSDAP). This firm also used the maker's code "936" and "dfb".

WaA4 still means Artillery section of WaA department.
