Image from FB, appears to be belted 20mm Hispano, a mix of HE and Ball, yet the Ball is unpainted not the regulation black.
Wonder if this was just an war production expedient?.541054891_1215283157292868_4189445730617054837_n.jpgHispano unpaint.Capture.JPG
 
yes that is odd, and the HE/I seem to have a band just below the fuze, more noticeable in the right hand belt.
