Hi Corman and I think your colours are correct, I had a 1955 -ish dated BPD SAPI projectile and it was as below/sideways/over/under or wherever it appears!
Hi Chris,
the colour of my SAPI is indeed original and correct. My projectile does not have any stamps regarding manufacturer or date. I do have SAPI-R that is post war dated and is painted black with blue tip and yellow band.
So would the SAPI projectile with the red/white colour be WW2 era , or could it also be post war used?
