Oh man, what a lovely bunch of projectiles, here I am eating my lunch and I've just messed up my keyboard by dribbling all over it! You've managed to show numbers 1 and 2 on my "wants list" in one photo (the 7.5cm and 5cm squeeze bores)!! VERY NICE INDEED!

Back to the Russian arrowhead, thanks for the information, much appreciated.

Dave,

You eveidently need one of those "Industrial" keyboards for use in factories where people drool on the keyboards. Glad you like the photos. They were pointy and in the neighborhood of where I was taking the photo.

If you review the construction of your bullet, the screws on the side are used to retain the penetrator in the sabot during firing. The wind resistance on the sabot shears the little pins, so the sabot falls off and the penetrator continues on to target.

Here are some arrowheads from MTM.

Here are some more from the Russian Artillery Museum. The mass group shots are from the storage area - an incredible collection which is stunning in quantity, quality and the scope that it covers.

In the first few photos of the Russian Artillery Museum, they have some interesting ways of keeping the rounds standing up. Never seen that before.
