Ron,
you have me confused by calling this a Bulgarian extractor and not a Russian extractor. While Russian characters are different from Bugarian characters, I always thought that the Germans didn't realise it either that the characters were different, so they used the same characters on the Russian extractors as they used on the Bulgarian extractors.

Wait a minute...I just looked at two extactors that I thought were Russian/Bugarian and the characters are different from Andys picture of his extractor. My extractors look something like a reverse '3', 'AP', reverse 'R', an 'unknown' symbol and a weird looking small 'b' character (just like Andys small, weird 'b'). But still, both my extractors are different from Andy's. So which is the Russian and which is the Bugarian?

I started collecting extrators once and thought that there were a few different ones
(1) the turkish extractor,
(2) the Portugese "CARREGADA",
(3) my Russian/Bugarian
(4) the "RUST" extractor, and
(5) the American "LOADED" and
(6) now Andies
Are there any others?
