The tool is in a wooden box, there is a length of string, a sight which fits into the breach of the MG34 like a little periscope that you can look down and there is a sort of sight. I presume you look down the periscope and sight up with target using the string somehow. Any ideas

Languages spoken or read: English; German (weak); French (extremely weak); Spanish (extremely weak); Brief exposure to numerous others (Mandarin, Hindi, Japanese, Czech,
Italian, etc). I am trying to find time to study *many* languages, but my best resources are for the main European languages so German, French and Spanish get the most attention.
Area of interest: World War II - specifically the economic and diplomatic situation in 1938 (my wife and I both also love castles and I've been to Europe twice to visit several castles in person - I like to actually stay in them and I seek out "ruins" and unknown castles). Simulations - I spent a staggering amount of time modifying "Hearts of Iron" to be more historically accurate and realistic. Off and on, I've been working on creating my own simulation of the world in 1938.
