Well not my bag realy but i came into some fully inert 2cm flak rounds

Not the best of condition but still presentable with all the usual inspectors marks and coding.

It allways impresses me how well marked the German munitions were and could easily get into these.

I must confess to trying not to let this side of collecting get the better of me as i know it will be wholesale or nowt:eek:oh:

I sold all my British shells to make way for Bombs and fuses ages ago.

still they display well and dont take up much room yet!:wink:

Lightweight ammunition

And they are not as heavy as great big bombs:rofl:

Just think how many of those you could collect in order to make the same weight as a 500 pound bomb!
 
Hi Phil,
Like Chris has mentioned you get a hole lot more weight for weight with these cannon rounds, bit of a fan myself. Always good to see a bit of diversification in the collection.
Best regards Weasel.
