Hi,
My fresch acquisition, from today.
WW2 German HE projectile 17cm K.Gr.39 FES used in 17cm K.18 in Mrs Laf.
Nose fuze - A.Z. 35 K.
And also German WW2 15cm Gr.36 FES with A.Z. 23 umg. (0,15) fuze. (for scale).

Does anyone of you, has in collection case for this 17cm projectile?
Because I'dont even know how this case looks...
long or short?
I find this information; case data; 191x725,1R, anyone can confirm that?

This ammunition was also used in some other German gun's?

Regards.

Great pics with nice items. :)
On larger rounds like these,i usually ask StielGranate,Fjordhouse or Quatermass.
Its just a force of habit now when i see items,i think "I shall ask ....." as i know they have them in their collections. For example,i usually ask Madbomber and Satan18 for info on Bomb-fuzes.

best
