BOCN Guess what it is

[paul the grenade]

is it an old ration tin?

 

[pointblank0]

Lid from a 2" mortar container?

 

[Stray]

at first I thought a zyklon b canister, but your obscure comment leads me to think it is a smoke generator maybe no 8?

 

[hangarman]

A lid from a tube of some sort

Well Cpl, your'e the closest so far!

 

[hangarman]

is it an old ration tin?

sorry Paul, nothing to do with rations

 

[hangarman]

Lid from a 2" mortar container?

Bigger than a 2" mortar

The Complete item, would have done this before but had a mare of a night at work with our computer system playing up, back for another round tonight and it will probably be the same sod all working.

Big clue, its just over 3" in diameter and has nothing to do with mortars. Kahu1 would probably know what it is. It's dated 1944. Its British.
