    Re: Kollsman periscopic sextant mount

    Good luck on finding the mount. The sextants used to be pretty common on
    ebay but they are rare. The mount was very rare and I waited many years
    before I found one on ebay. I suggest you place the sextant on your
    ebay notifications and hope that a mount eventually shows up.

    Or, you could visit the Reagan Library in California, break into Air Force
    One and steal the mount from the overhead.

    I have all the manuals for operation of the sextants and the mount.





    If you need a 28 volt power supply for using your sextant at home just go down to Home Depot and buy a water sprinkler system electric transformer which puts out 28 volts and is cheap.

    Hello,
    I am trying to mount my kollsman periscopic sextant in a similar kind of way,
    I am missing a couple of parts,
    -the ceiling mount
    -the power supply.
    -The manual.
    I have an A 28450 00 001 model sextant that was passed on to me by my dad!
    Looks very similar to yours.
    Any info on it or where i could find parts would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks, benjamin
