Hi,

Yes , I have the same opinion - 66x365R78 : Standard cartridge (combat) M.10 ... Skoda weapons.
Cartridges were produced in Czechoslovakia for up to 1929 ...in this length for S.H.S. (Yugo)

Hi Fert
-The army operated: 6.6cm Cannon vz.30 (on the patrol ship President Masaryk, i.e. on the Danube)
66x400R81,2 (vz.30)
-the ammunition is different when compared to the AH, i.e. the cartridge is different, the primer screw is different, the fuse is different, the powder and other details. -As for the ammunition for export in general, it was not the same as the ammunition introduced for the army, in the case of the comparison of Yugoslavia/Czechoslovakia, according to my information, it is also different. -The cartridge with the... "vz.28", -as for the primer screw (it has a thread / hole size W / 27.3mm) i.e. the army counted on the reuse of fired cartridges, therefore, where possible, it preferred this design to the blank.

Hi Fert will try to answer you.This series of photos contains a factory cut of the ammunition, i.e. 6.6cm Sharp impact grenade cartridge vz.30 in a 90 degree cut design.The cartridge was "manufactured" in 1930 (this is an additional designation - in 1930 iron cartridges were not produced) and if I am not mistaken, it is painted steel - i.e. if this assumption based on the photo is correct, it is manufactured in the later years after 1939 (if the cartridge version is steel), the primer screw in 1931 (used from pre-war material stocks). It has the Škoda company emblem.Comment on the whole: it is manufactured for a German order by Škoda Plzeň because the real pre-war cartridges for the Czechoslovak Army (and export) were brass. Also, the version of the explosive charge where there is a cardboard case with the explosive charge is not a pre-war version. The body is two-piece, which does not agree with the comparison from the 1930 version, i.e. it is also made for a German customer. So, in short, it is possible to identify it by the components used until the war years. The fuse is missing in the picture: A special type for the 6.6cm impact grenade of the Škoda design was used. I had this type of drawing somewhere ... if I find it, I will put it here. It is possible to find the total manufactured numbers / invoiced prices of each type including prototypes. That is for the first series of photographs ... .
