I thought these photos of a 1 pounder dummy round would be of interest.

The case appears to be blackened, would that be the original colour?

Hi Dave,
That a really nice looking round, I've not seen one of those with a blackend case befor.
Best Weasel. .
 
Could well be and nickle plating on the projectile, presume a solid plug and not a fuze. Not quite as obvious as the wooden headed kind though.

It must be somebodies extra and needs a good home :tinysmile_kiss_t4:
 
Thanks guys, unfortunately not mine and the guy who own's it really likes 1 pounders.

Dave.
 
Of Course ! It is likely a "commercial" item and was supplied with the guns to whom ever bought them as part of the kit.
