I am looking for a type designation and a cutaway drawing of the fuze on this French 50mm mortar.
Does anybody gave a spare -fired- propelling cartridge for this mortar?

Thanks in advance, regards, DJH

Thank you very much, but do you also have a drawing of the nose fuze?
 
Hello,
No original doc, only informations from Belot books :

-19-23 B M1937 : groove in the middle (I assume for the lead cap)
-19-23 B M1939 : groove on top
-19-23 B post ww2 : no groove

M47 and M60 (P) were fitted with a safety pin (rifle grenade)
