SOLD

FL30154-2. Manufactured by Drager.  Later war example of the 10-30 B-2 schwimmweste with plastic fittings on the inflation tube and CO2 bottle mounting point.  The rubberized canvas is in reasonably good condition.  It is a little faded, lightly soiled, stiffened in places (not rigid), and has a small hole as shown in the photographs.  Complete with all straps/rings, waist belt and buckle, oral inflation tube/valve and CO2 bottle (manufactured by Auer), FL30153-1, dated 5-45.  The metal parts have corrosion and this has marked some of the surrounding cloth.  The plastic mouthpiece has a section missing as shown in the photographs.  Common to late production examples this schwimmweste has no label and the reference number and manufacturer's details are printed directly onto the canvas.  A super display piece.  Stock code MW24842.
