Overview of Scarce WW2 Dbl Barrel Luftwaffe Flieger-Leuchtpistole L (Aviators Flare Gun L) 1941 FZS
Item Details
Rare Krieghoff Double Barreled Flare Pistol. Great example of the Luftwaffe Flieger-Leuchtpistole L or Aviators Flare Gun L. These double barrel, 26.5mm (4 Bore) signal pistols were issued to Luftwaffe aircrews in order to give them a method of communication that did not rely on their radio transmitters. This pistol is marked with Krieghoff’s Factory Code FZS under the date 1941 to the rear of the safety lever on the left side of the frame. The tops of the barrels are both marked with a 4 in a circle (4-Bore) over the German definitive black powder proof (1939-1945) of an (EAGLE) / SP. There is a maker’s logo or crest in this central area on the rear of the frame, a branch within a shield, centered between the L & R of the barrel selector lever. The signal pistol is marked with the serial number 6504 on the forward lower portion of the right-hand side of the frame, and the Luftwaffe contract number FL.24483 is present on the opposite side of the frame. Pistol also marked with Luftwaffe acceptance marks. The gun has a frame mounted safety with F and S markings. The pistol uses a break open design that is activated by pushing the release lever forward. This action releases the locking lugs, opens the action, cocks the pistol and automatically sets it on safe. After closing the action, the shooter can use the selector switch on the rear of the frame to determine whether they want to fire the Left barrel, Right barrel or both barrels simultaneously, by pulling the split trigger. The pistol retains about 80%+ of its original blued finish, with most of the wear and finish loss confined to the sides of the barrels due to normal period holster wear. The pistol is in excellent mechanical condition and functions perfectly, with a crisp, tight action. The two-piece mottled brown composite grips are in very good condition. They retain sharp checkering, with only some minor handling and finish wear.
