HONORED MEMBER RIP
french 5cm.jpg

this piece is told to be (possibly) a 5cm French WWII mortar.

can anyone of the fellow mortar-specialists here confirm that assumption?

thanks in advance
 
Yep, its a 50 mm mortar grenade Mle 38, French :tinysmile_grin_t:

thanks guys for the good info.
ok, it seems to be a special and rarer one and so far unsuitable for my own display purposes.
the item, without fuse, is currently offered for sale at www.egun.de (ID-Nr. 3000838) - for those who may need it :tinysmile_grin_t:
