Leuchtpistole

[John Hodgin]

Aluminum model for signaling, so it belongs here I think. OK Equipment moderators, show me yours

[François SAEZ]

Nice, attached is mine

Hope somebody has one with the proper holster & the tool

[John Hodgin]

Mon Ami,

John

Hi,
Great stuff !
What is the price of this kind of pistol these days ?
I've noticed that WW2 flare pistols are not forbidden here in Holland,so I want to buy one in a while.

I suppose something around 150€ - more with the holster and the tool

[GJR100]

Hi Jos,

A friend of mine probably will get in some holsters in about 1 - 1,5 weeks. Good condition.
Prices:
- Holster with tool (with leather tab and hook) € 250,=
- Canvas Sling € 50,=

If you're interested, I'll let you know when he gets them in ...

Bart

Although not as nice as the one showed here, I've seen price around 100 $ for one ( a wooden box ful of them) on the show in Bethune, in the north of France, last year. The same guy selling these has also a table at the Ciney-show. Most were dated 1941 and all seemed to be in good used condition.

Does anyone has a 'patronentashe' in canvas or leather that they would like to show?
these are the only 2 flare-patronen I have . maker eby, dated 44.


cheers

Jan

oops...forgot the picture. One is white another is orange.

It would also be interesting if someone could give exact information on which color was used in what kind of situation.

[John Hodgin]

Unfired Jan!

Beautiful holster Bart! These are rare. I have seen repro'ed cleaning rods, has anyone else?

Jan, I've a friend with the pouches in leather and canvas, but he lives far away, and I only see him about once a year. Will try to get photos. Signal pistols and accessories are all he collects. He has a Z pistol and shoulder stock!

Regards,
John

Thanks in advance John, would love to see some pictures...

Jos, this one is the only one for you.
