Thanks for sharing it with us.
Please could you identify the short brass case on the right hand side half way up in the middle picture, it is the one with rebated rim.
Thank you.

Nice collection kahu1.
In your third photo (far right), you have a 20mm (I think) round with the shell painted all red. I have a similar one, unfortunately, I know nothing about it.
Do you have any info that you could share?
Cheers,
Brad

Hi ,
The short rebated rim case is a cut down trench art 20 x124mm Jap case.i collected before i got the others thinking at least it was a start.
The red projectile Oerlikon round is (i think) an American HEI though the fuse is like white metal ,not brass.
cheersBob.
