Hi all
Left looking rather silly when I thought this was a Beaufighter hand pump (and was told as much) only to find out today that it isn’t 😡 I have a lot to learn still and now have three of these things !
Anyway can anyone ID this pump? Its a clickable thumb image and you can see the numbers etc. It was made locally in Melbourne by C Huppert & Co but there have been sightings of UK made ones as well. Any help greatly appreciated 🙂

Yeah don’t think we have Puma helicopters here 🙂 It was acquired originally from an RAAF auction after WW2…not that that narrows it down much !

Looks very much like the one fitted to Puma helicopters, but its not. Pumpy handle thing at the top is different.
