Pictured is a recent find a 1895 manufactured Berndorf produced 75mm case. Also shown for comparison is a Berndorf produced case for the 75mm M15 mountain gun. The 1895 case is 170mm long, rim 88mm and mouth 75mm, can anybody provide some information on the gun? I found the primer interesting, it is the same as found on German WW1 10cm cases. I tried exchanging examples and they are a perfect fit. The case has been repaired at the mouth, could the R. on the base indicate this repair? Not often you find early Austrian stuff in the UK, glad to have your views.
