TullochArd Posted 19 February Share Posted 19 February (edited) ...... likely a telescope front/rear lens cover. The WD Crowsfoot indicates an issued item rather than a private purchase item. Edited 19 February by TullochArd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RNCVR Posted 19 February Share Posted 19 February I'm guessing too -- Perhaps a muzzle cap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave66 Posted 19 February Share Posted 19 February Looks very much like the carrying strap for a signaling telescope tripod stand, there are some images it this thread here…… Dave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chasemuseum Posted 19 February Share Posted 19 February The covered over cap is from a telescope and the strap and tube end are from the tripod. This is an early WW2 example of "Tripod, Lamp and Heliograph, A Mk III" It differs from WW1 versions in several details including using a 1-inch web strap rather than the wider but thinner canvas strap.

Dave66 Posted 19 February Share Posted 19 February The strap is too long for a telescope, but have a look at the item here….https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/285676502151?itmmeta=01HQ1PEH3FAP06FKC56ES7NPN3&hash=item4283a57c87:g:UesAAOSw5NlluBoO&itmprp=enc%3AAQAIAAAAwNPA2cjWU7tMijNeHMuPnGeyoD96Jd872f%2BSmhooUwYgs40jEIgV%2FB7ByNZBFzd55KhlXgzpopoqkzOv%2FlW7BJm4toSm32X7zgLcVaElHDRsmZZxn%2FdGeg0ivA7OR4nj8esgdkIX1bA2h2YVnfm7NzS7%2FyXaWpzmlFjftvr1QOY9rNM0YUTgo%2FDEGxlx1G1uVh9VGl%2FGcSAZD4Op8i8UKMx85alXk4oE1qeALorYBNEsMJVDMzd%2FRtXidvJTV%2FZVag%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR-iRura4Yw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
