I was shown a 17Pr case years ago that was made in 1951. I only have a headstamp drawing in my files.
Headstamp was: 17 Pr M48 FZ 1951 LOT 3.
I think it was made by Les Forges de Zebrugge Herstal, Belgium. What does the M48 refer to?
Why would the 17Pr be made post-war in 1951 unless some country still used it as a tank or artillery round? No photo available.
