Flea market find, military bicycle pump, etc.

[Sasquatch807]

I reluctantly stopped at a flea market today at my wife's demand and I’m the one who wound up buying stuff. She laughed and teased me all the way to the car.

Can anyone help me identify which country might have used that bicycle pump? I haven’t made out any markings on it yet. The bayo is 1958 Canadian Arsenals, and the smaller ammo box is US belted .30 cal M2, I guess for the M1919 BMG. Which era might the box have been produced?

The TR 51-DA-64 should be tracer and the lot number. DA is one of the monograms used by Dominon Arsenals which changed their monogram from DAQ in WWI to DAC between the wars and DA from 1945 to 1958. Hope that helps.

Nice score! Wonder what happened to the screws for the bayonet grip?

No screws, they are riveted.
