WW1 Imperial German Hebel M1894 Flare Pistol With WW2 Anti-Tank Warning Shell INERT ANTIQUE NO PERMIT REQUIRED

The WW1 Imperial German Hebel M1894 Flare Pistol was a standard-issue signal pistol used by German forces during the First World War. Noted for its robust construction, the M1894 features a single-shot, break-action mechanism and is chambered for 26.5mm flares. Its distinctive long lever (or “Hebel”) allows for easy operation, even while wearing gloves. This item includes an inert, original WW2 German anti-tank warning shell, which was used for signaling the presence of enemy armor to friendly troops. The flare pistol and shell are both deactivated and classified as antique, requiring no license or permit for ownership in compliance with regulations. The Hebel M1894 is constructed from blued steel with wooden grip panels, and the design remained in use through both World Wars due to its reliability. This set is intended for collectors and those interested in military history, providing a representative example of period signaling equipment.
