Bf 110 E-3 with rear-firing MGs on each side of the fuselage. A 'periscope' attachment was fitted, connected to the gunsight. The pilot would line-up an attacking enemy in his rear in his gunsight, and fire the rearward firing guns when they aligned with the gunsight.
This is the original Luftwaffe instruction for its use:

Bf 110 E, W. Nr. 3484. Note the white/blue/white spinner. When the Bf 110 Staffel of Erprobungsgruppe 210 was formed in December 1940 (the previous 3. Staffel had flown Bf 109 E fighter-bombers, but the flying personnel had been transferred to 4./JG 51), they took on some Bf 110s from 1. Staffel, hence the spinner colours.
This aircraft did not return from a mission on 12th May 1941 with 3./SKG 210.

Some poor bloody fool is going to buy this fake!

The hand emblem on Bf 110s of I./ZG 2 was red, not black. Also, it was painted on the MG cowling, which did not have rivets all over the place on it - look at the rivet holes on this piece of crap!
Here's a view of the emblem on the nose of Bf 110 C-2, 3M+CH, W. Nr. 3076 of 1./ZG 2. You can see in a couple of seconds that the e-bay item is a fake.

Agree it's fake. The word "crased" instead of "crashed" is another giveaway that this was manufactured.
