Interesting Kriegsmarine Huet 8x30 Find
Bought these today at a military vehicle jumble, previous owner scrapped paint off to reveal the following details, Dm-1v, D.F. 8x30 18* Artl, Kriegsmarine, they didn't notice on the other half beneath the paint Huet Paris, graticle in right half, optically good, I can't seem to find any details in Hans Seegers book, anybody else seen something like these or has any information ?
Regards Gary
