Gspragge, thank you for those pictures you uploaded. I send you this picture of a Mk1 and M38 Fuze for the 37MM we dug up earlier this year. Can you identify these fuzes as correct and do you have pictures of a M58 fuze? I am doing an ID guide for our teams and wish too include a picture of a M58 Fuze.

Jack, Where you playing nowadays? Send me a private message here on the board. In partial answer to your questions to Gordon, I have (2) examples of the M38 HE Fuze (one without booster housing) and (1) of the M58 HE Fuze with the MK II HE and the M63 HE bracketing them. Also, on Gordons' slides, if you start all the way from the left, he has some pictures of them on slide #7. Cheers, Bruce.

two M58 base fuzes. One has markings removed and as such used as a plug.
(Blind Loading) Difficult to find either way.
