I picked up this mortar with a few WW2 dated Borors rounds, from an estate sale. See seperate post on the 40mm rounds. This mortar body has no markings anywhere. I checked it with a magnifying glass and can find nothing. First the fuze : aluminum with a pull ring, it is engraved "Fuze PD M52G2". Body: it is " browned", not painted. Similar in appearance to brown blueing in the gun world. The fin is unmarked, and appears to be finished in brown lacquer. Can any experts give their assessment as to age, origin, or any other thoughts? Please see pictures. Thanks again...added: is the pull ring ( like ones found on a grenade) original or is it an amateur add on?
