Can anyone elaborate on the case and primer markings please? I think this is a 10cm type 91 howitzer case. I believe the crossed cannons are Osaka arsenal. larger jap cases are very hard to find in the UK so I was happy to get this for 18 quid. Cheers Tig.:tinysmile_fatgrin_t
 
My best translation is Osaka September 1941 case. Osaka October 1940 primer.
10cm Type 41 How should be 105x243R with a 122mm rim diameter.
 
Thanks for the info Ron, yes the case dimensions match what you have said. cheers Tig.
