Yes Ron. This is "Straight Arms", an early cross by Großmann & Co. PKZ 11 (SA standard core and frame). And you don't see him often.

It looks a good match to mine which can be seen in the thread below:
The Unknown EK2 - #2.
These are very rare in my opinion. You don't see many of them. Rarer the the Odd Date EK2 for example.
Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....
Yes, these crosses are very rare. In addition, they come in three variants. I would call the presented one "classic". The second variant has an SA frame but the reverse of the core is standard for PKZ 11 (1,1a) and the third has a standard PKZ 11 frame but the reverse of the core is SA (2,2a). Finding these two borders on a miracle (luckily I have the third variant).

Big thanks once again to manclino and Adrian for your expertise and opinions I went ahead and purchased this Straight Arms EK2 for my collection Ron
My congratulations Ron. Now "hunt" for the other two. You already know what these crosses are characterized by.
