20mm Mauser 151/20

[pointblank0]

Hello all,
Does anyone have any colour coding ID pages and markings for German 151/20 ammunition and 13mm Mk131 ammo please?
I am straying from my grenade collection for a while as money is a bit tight at the mo, so 20mm etc seem to be the way forward.
Any help would be great,
Cheers,
Rob

Hello,
in the "Handbuch der Flugzeug Bordwaffenmunition" you can find the markings and the colour codings of all the Mg131, Mg151 and mk103/108 shells.

cannon and machineguns imaginable will be found in Panzerknackers extensive series of postings on www.ww2incolor.com Brilliant stuff!!!!!!

I don't suppose anyone else has the difficulty I have in navigating some of
these websites like the one I've mentioned above.
To get to the relevant section I google ww2 luftwaffe aircraft cannon,click
on the 3rd entry Luftwaffe Cannons & Machineguns WW2 in Color Forum,
and go back to page 1. Good read and plenty of it.

It's still a constant learning curve for me,I've since discovered that if you scroll down to the bottom of the homepage and click on Archive,then click on German Military all is revealed.Why,Oh,Why,did I not know that?????
