45mm soviet anti tank shell

Hi,


Here is a pic of one of mine to give you an idea of just how large the high capacity shell is in comparison to the case. No primer in this one either, i have also been told it was to much trouble to make these safe.
Weasel.

Seems like Finnish stencils on your showed shell case. They used it as well http://www.jaegerplatoon.net/AT_GUNS2.htm.

And shared handbook is also produced by Finnish.

Hi Endel,
Thank you very much for the added info, much appreciated. That is a really good selection of various projectile types you have in your collection. i have not seen some of those before like the canister or the pre fragmented one.
Best regards Weasel.
