Hi,

In attachment three images of the item I cannot identify. Perhaps one of you might be able to help me out.

Markings : D (with a circle around it)

Width (diameter) : 30mm
Length : 35mm

Thank you

It looks like a base fuze, and it looks like the booster chamber hasn't ever been opened. Be careful!
 
Has been opened. And was already opened.

Was wondering what it was used for. Wouldnt mess with it if it wasn’t safe.
 
Can you show the mechanics inside? I guess this will be difficult to identify and sometimes the mechanical parts give a track to the manufacturer.
 
No problem, I don’t have a clue either . Thanks for your help though.
 
It looks to me like a part of a larger base fuze.
something similar to the Skoda fuzes, I just cannot find the correct one.

The attached picture is NOT the answer just an example of what I mean with "part of fuze"

Yes , I understand. That’s also one of the possibilities that I had thought of , or atleast in that direction.
Thank you.
