scored this strange thing and just found out what it is, it's an aiming circle used in WWII.
the tripod is 3 feet tall and has brass bits and the aiming circle is a solid brass thing, nice and heavy.
it's painted green and i'd imagine polished up would look great.













so what to do with it?
seems to of been stored safely all this time, the dials ect all work like new, real smooth.
picked it up and thought it was a land survey tripod but being 70 years old and a war item, I think this would sell for a lot more then scrap brass, even the strap is in great condition considering the age.
