Lucky Run.......

[axxel57]

Seems I have had a lucky run!
Within three weeks I found first a MK6 which was missing in my collection, then I found a MK8 together with my first real 156, and finally i got a brand new MK5 DIN with a 109 and a vintage SP SPG.
It's just the second time that I found a MK5 - 109 that has never touched water as it seems ( and some vintage gloves coming with it), very nice.
Angelo would probably love again the smell of the rubber parts.....
Guys, I'm very happy.......!

thought you meant you went on a jog and found a bunch of scuba gear out by the curb in your neighborhood

Very nice! Wow!

Great looking regs! It looks like there's a new style lever (with the curly feet) in the photo of your 156.

No, I compared the lever with some other 150 BAs levers, it's the same type (of course different to the 109 levers)......

Very nice find! 156 with the G250 sized exhaust valve-rare.
.
I knew MK8s existed, but I've never even seen a picture of one, 'til now.

Thanks for sharing.

Never touched water? Oh my!

Is the G250 exhaust valve the same as the G260? Part number is a bit different.

Nice!

Is the stepped air barrel the distinctive feature of an actual 156? Also noting the larger exhaust spider...

I have one it has a stepped barrel, Drawing doesn’t indicate a stepped barrel.
