Hi

The attached photos are of a 37-mm projectile with "OT 125 SMC Mk II" and a grenade symbol on the driving band.

The base fuze is marked BD M-38 PA 1933.

Identification and details please.

Thanks

Doug

it is what it say's it is. The m-38 fuze is a base detonating fuze. this round is very common.
 
Go to the Projectiles section

US 37mm , I put the basic information there.

The fuse in the MK11 in the drawing predates your fuse.
