Thank you for the usefull remarks. Also, the screws were misplaced, as @alvin said. So this eastern Europe stock has no more mistery to hide! I will bring the stock from my brother!

Attached is a document, dated 1942, with instructions to use the Schellfeuer, by the army wich uniform I wear at reenactments!
