hello, again nice italian rounds.
A 77/28 shrapnel round. Case it's the original austro hungarian 8cm M5 case cutted to 230mm (same used on austro hungarian 8cm M16) with italian 1935 marking. Shell it's austrian 8cm M13 shrapnel reworked to match with italian fuze mod 906/17 (only time fuze). Color code it's the 1931 standard, grey shell, with dark red stripe above driving band (means shrapnel) and the red ogive (loaded shell)
any other pics please?


Second as shows by the label it's a blank round for 75/27 field gun. The wood projectile was used in other caliber for tblank round up to 210mm.

Hello,
anyone knows if the german made round it's for the russian 76,2mm gun?

The primer hole looks much to large for a 76,2 mm case. I also wonder which calibre this cartridge has? If the calibre would be in 75 - 76,2 mm range, the length would be around 520 mm.

Doesn't look as though I will have a chance to check until this weekend, soon......

Data on the round is not real clear, they were not that concerned about data on the case. Data reads as follows:

Over all length - 277mm
exposed - 195mm
cartridge - 395mm
Rim - 74mm

Hello,
US-Subs, thanks for addictional info on 6.6cm czich round. I think total lenght would be 590mm = case 395 + shell exposed 195mm. it's in line with old austro hungarian 7cm L/30 K 09-10

the fuze I quote it's italian Pancani, for Pnacani shell-shrapnell already posted.


Anyone knows if the other shell it's a 18pdr smoke shell please?
best regards

Hello Fert,

-The Italian fuze shown (used on 105 pancani), is it the fuze called M12 ?

-I assume the first shell shown is the HE version of Czech Skoda 6.6cm ?
