    Hi,

    here's my 1944 AGM Milspec found on a German flea-market.
    I haven't found this specific model anywhere in the www cause it has a Military fount. Not a civil one which I could see in the net.

    It has as usual in 1944 the Aladdin Conversion Kit as generator:

    And it's really a piti that it has the typical AGM-illness with a completely cracked fount. I counted 7 cracks every 2-4 cm.

    I think it's seldom but I won't keep her cause I'm not able to fix the cracks. Maybe a Milspec-collector wanna have it for display.

    Best regards.

    Hi, I’ve just bought a milspec Coleman (1973) and I’m waiting to be delivered, I’ve heard a few people talk about cracks in the founts of the milspec lamps , what causes this ? Is it from being thrown around by the military personnel, thanks
