G APPEL RG34 Behoerden With 9mm Brush Clip

Saw this G APPEL behoerden RG34 and wanted to post it to the Forum. These kits with the 9x19mm brush clip are somewhat uncommon...with the special short brush (having a alloy disc to block use in a 7.92mm barrel) often absent when found. Kits I have seen previously tend to be of earlier production, with alloy beaded chains and steel oilers. The example pictured appears to be of later manufacture, based on the application of the paint and components (c.a. 1943/4) and a variant I had not seen previously. IMHO the HKW is questionable, but unsure about the other components...thoughts?

Imo someone added all the parts to the kit, none seem correct. I’m surprised it sold for $70, seems like so much for so little. They’ll never find the little brush, the other stuff maybe.

The can is circa 1941. As already stated, the components shown are not original to the kit.
