Unfortunately I have no measurements to confirm this, but I think this is an inert training shell for Soviet 37X252SR AA-gun or some aircraft gun. Either of Soviet or East-Block origin.
 
These are russians to?

thanks i have around 700kg in my outpost wich i must clean and some need to id.
i think i have no hungarian things. only if an unknown would be hungarian....
 
for the same gun like the first or for an other?

munfrosch, Looking at the rotating bands of all three, each has been engraved by a different gun type, so my guess would be that, no, they aren't for the same gun. I know it doesn't help much but it at least lets you know what they are not. Cheers, Bruce.
 
youre right. but the first 2 grenades are the same only different bottom. i could change them
 
YES they are

I do not know the two upper ones but they are certainly not Russian.
Bacarnal is absolutely right in his observation, the rifling pattern is way different and can not fit the Russian M1939 gun. Also the driving band width is differing from Russian ones.
