20mm MK8

DEADLINE222

Well-Known Member
Picked up a 20mm MK8 missing it's ballistic cap today. The body of the projectile is marked "MK8-1 4-43"

Other than the similar MK9 featured on Ordata, I can find no mention of it anywhere.

Does anyone posses a complete example?

Is it 'Shot A.P with tracer'? , should have a blunt rounded nose (bakelite?) to bring it up to full length.

cheers
