Einstossflammenwerfer 46

[kerryboo]

After a long search I have finally got an einstossflammenwerfer in better condition than my dug-up. This one still has the jets and about 50% of the sand paintwork.

Nozzles and "old" flamethrower for comparison. Sorry for the poor indoor scans, it is foul outside!

Now I know who outbid me...

[kerryboo]

To be honest Gran Sasso, I was amazed when the bidding stopped. Amazed, but very happy.

Good for you - and good for us, exxx does not know everything...

That is in great shape. Do you have a manual or have you figured out how the valve and igniter work?

[oberjaeger]

best regards jens
