Found this one about 2 years ago, its been in the tank for that time with lots of water changes.

After chloride removal confirmed, it had a clean with acetone and 00 wire wool, heated up with a hot air gun and microcrystalline wax soaked in...that's it!

Paint and any markings except waffenamt and some stamps are long gone. Judging by previous finds in the area and partial detonation of this piece I suspect Ub
