6,5 cm Patr 412 St

[sgdbdr]

Hi,


A friend of mine and I couldn't identify this :



Marking says "6,5cm Patr 412 St" and there is the Waffen Amt stamp. Code is unreadable, unfortunately.

So, it's steel and WW2...

Hope one of you experts will have more details.


Cheers,

S.

That's not an 6,5 cm, that's an 5,5 cm.
The exact designation is 5.5 x 210 and it was for the experimental aircraft cannon MK412.
My picture shows a dummy cartridge.
Cartridges and cases of the MK412 are very rare.
