SS Marked Fire Nozzle

[ilikeoldstuff]

Does anyone have an opinion as to the authenticity of these marks, and or has anyone ever seen or heard of an SS fire nozzle?

I'm new to forums in general, my apologies if this is in the wrong location or if I have made any other mistakes.

Hi & welcome to the forum. no need to apologise We all start somewhere.
I think you have what they call "A piece made to deceive"

As far as I am aware fire nozzles did not come under the Reichszeugmeisterei (RZM) Least of all SS Fire nozzles

The RZM office defined design, manufacturing and quality standards, and published an authoritative colour chart for textiles. All pieces of equipment had to be labelled with a visible RZM copyright protection symbol and a product-assigned RZM number that contained encoded data about the textile sector, material group, producer number and year of production.

If it were a legit piece it would have an RZM designated number M......./.........

I think what you have there is an ordinary fire nozzle, where some one has gotten carried away with a made up stamp, in order to fool the uninitiated and jack up the price

I concur with my colleagues that this is a very unusual item to fake.
