Re: Heinkel He 177 component
It looks to me more like a cable pulley wheel than a trim wheel?

However...thats by-the-by!

No idea as to the logo, but is it DRS?

Julian - you were trying to contact me? Try going through one of the links, here, at the foot of my post.

Maybe "HRS", which stands for "Hermann Ritzmann & Söhne" in Eisfeld/Thuringia.
Big WW2 producer of "Kunststoff"(=bakelite), e.g. pistol grips for Luger and Walther pistols.

Regards

Fran

Re: Heinkel He 177 component
I too think its HRS and possibly stands for Herman Ritzmann, however confusing thing is Ritzmann was often sub contracted by Herman Roemmler (Sprengberg) also HRS however I reckon odds are that its the Ritzmann company...does anyone know what happened to this company post war? Roemmlers still exists
