Hy Raynald gary is right it is exactly a A6 copy the bubble atachment is a bit deferent . Most of the time the bubble chamber is empty it is wy you dont have any bubble. You have to refeeld whit a sering whit XYLENE that you can purchase in any drugstore. You also need a very small scroodriver.Of course you have to remove the bubble chamber.To remove the chamber You have all the instructions on a manual you can get from EBAY for few box, it is for A6 A6A A8 A8A bosch and lombs aircraft sextant.I am looking myself for a new bubble chamber mine is broken or a complete japanase aircraft sextant. If ou have any more questions about this sextant right back Jean Michel ------------------------------------------ [Sent from archive by: kaloujm-AT-free.fr] --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Navigation List archive: www.fer3.com/arc To post, email NavList@fer3.com To , email NavList-@fer3.com -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
