Hi My husband found a pile of these about 40 years ago at a dump in Canterbury New Zealand. He managed to save one. His father dumped the rest :tinysmile_angry_t:
It is a 90mm dia base of what appears to be cast iron shell with the numbers
78(or9)82
10
SC
4421
1/42
It is a little corroded so there may be more ID marks, very heavy & 330mm from base to where the tip has been removed. It has some threading around the base which is flat not dished.
Forgive my inexperience with the terminology.
Husband thinks maybe bren gun or similar?
Any help much appreciated.
Thanks.
