Who can help me to identify the gun parts shown on the pictures??
A friend of mine asked me, but I donÃ?Â´t know them except for the part 3 which is probably belonging to a flare pistol?

Pisto, Your item #5 is a Walther M8 breech block. I feel confident that none of the other items are from pre1946 German made pistols. TH

I think No. 6 is a barrel bushing and I sure wish I could remember where I have seen one like that.

thanks lugerdoc and Jim! I was surprised about the Mod.8 breechblock from Walther (item #5) couldnt take apart one bevore. The one I have in my collection is a 99% Walther in the box - and that one I dont like to take apart!
The #6 is probably to small for a barrel bushing - it seems to be one but it has only about 8mm diameter.

I think #4 is a .50 caliber Browning Machine Gun firing pin mount... I used to own the firing pin that fits in the machined recess in the front of it- and I have used it for a pin punch for years for disassembly of M1911A1 Colts... half of the sear surface is on the other end...

corrected $5 to be #4 - JS
