Crazy price!
WW2 stove maybe.

The Army version is the 520 , and they are green , but they are pretty much identical . Here's some info from wiki -

Interesting. With only a three year run numbers must be more limited..

I like it. Dose it work? Also up at the flea market I saw one of the wierd propane bottle cook stove like I think it was you ?? posted some time ago. It had that full metal tube the bottle set in. I think also there was a lantern by the same maker of the stove. Real heavy duty built stuff. If they're still there I'll gets some details and pictures of them.

Congrats on the cool buy. I have one out in the shed in a foot locker (never used). Mine was new in the early 90's. Who knows how long it was on a shelf in some Army depot. I keep it around "just in case".

I am a real spend thrift. However I would have parted with the 10 bucks for that. Excellent find. Hope it works.

Nice stove. I have found and sold a few. Usually pay between $5-10. Sells between $50-100 depending on the condition.

I bought one last year that was complete and got $50 quick bucks for it. They go for 85 and up in worse shape. They take abasic Coleman pump if u ever want to replace it. But get a good price if u sell. I regret sellin g mine, problay never find another one.
