Have a look a few items down on this page: Snyder's Treasures -- Military Optics
It appears to be a sight for a Flak 37 gun.
Hi Didier,
It's an OK 1x40° Ausf. A Kriegsmarine Flak 37 Optical Gunsight. The maker dow was Opticotechna GmbH.
Ohhhhh- pillage then burn...
Wow- simultaneous posts LOL
Ohhhhh- pillage then burn...
I'm wondering if it is dow or dpw as per the plate on the other sight I linked to, which would make it Zeiss-Ikon, plans Goerz, Berlin-Zehlendorf?
Although having said that, the larger photo does look like it is dow.
The one on that Snyder's Treasures site is 'dow' too- the text says so and if you look at the photo closely, you'll see the bit that looks like the tail of a 'p' is actually rust... It's a funny coincidence though that 'dpw' would work.
Ohhhhh- pillage then burn...
Good spot!
Hello Gentlemen
thank you very much
cordially
Didier
