2cm Solothurn

Ok,I searched the site for about 2 hrs. I know Ive got 20X105B and 20X138B Solothurn rounds.But for the life of me I cant decode the headstamps!!!

The 20X105B ,if you can see in the photo,dated 1939 20 m/m 316 also has a deep impression of the number 8. This 8 has been stamped over something,its un identifiable.

The 20X138 is marked 20/40 E12 41 T with a circle pierced by two arrows.

Where the heck did these come from and thanks for your help,,,,,
