Original R.A.44 8cm Mortar Sight Box POS part Its a new old stockOriginal box for the R. A. 44 a simplified late war German mortar sight. As the name implies, it went into production in 1944 so very few were made compared with the R. A. 35 and other variants. The box is marked POS. I found a small quantity of these, all are in similar condition, the ones pictured are a fair representation of the rest. The price is for 1 box. These are very interesting for anyone interested in late war variations for one big reason.
