Hi All,
I picked up one of the earthing pins at our local gun show last spring and it was a 1950's type semi gloss green paint on it.I paid $3.00 for it.I cannot find any markings on it.
This year at an antique sale,one of our local militaria dealers had 3 in his case for sale and I bought all 3 ( I need 10 more!) for $25.00ea.More expensive but you rarely see them for sale so have to buy them when they are there.2 pins are marked MCA 1942 and C broadarrow marked.The 3rd pin just has a C broadarrow on it.Does anybody know what MCA stands for?
Thanks to this thread I now know what the 2 plain pins are for I have had for a few years now to the right of the earthing pins.I guess I will be looking for 8 more! A person can't turn one down on a lathe as these are cast.
I was also wondering if anybody had a check list for the contents of the Aerial bag?
Thanks,Derk.
