Late war or Post war oiler

[sfmike1]

Hi All,
Can anyone comment on this oiler? It looks like a late-war type, but has some inconsistencies (one piece - no weld marks, a little more pronounced "shoulders" on the front cap, and finish looks blued). Real.....or a copy? It looks similar to RCO45 one posted previously by another member here (last pic), including the small "dent" in the tip. Thanks! SF Mike

Hi sfmike1,

Please excuse my laziness with this question, but I'd rather not spend the rest of my morning serarching the forum for an answer you probably can provide in a minute.

Would you please list out the models of oilers that you have on the final photo and their relative manufacture dates? This is not my primary area of interest, but your comparison photo intrigues me. I now wonder how many of these I've handled and put back in the pile because it didn't look right?

Thanks,

Matt

Hello Matt,
The bottom photo was posted a long time ago by member Willi Z. - not my collection. (It's one of the early posts in the "pinned" cleaning kits discussion): http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...=74866&page=14
