British Bomb Mortar 81mm Practice L22 and L27

Bomb Mortar 81mm Practice L22 and L27.

Good day all, I am looking for information on the Bomb Mortar 81mm Practice L22 and L27. I would like to know what other practice bombs were produced for the 81mm mortar system in UK service. When did they fall out of favour for range practices in favour of just using operational bombs ear marked for training.

If there are other versions of British 81mm practice bombs please pass on photos if you wish, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

I see nobody replied to your post but this is all I have. Hard to find in Australia.
I only have the L22A3 Practice 81mm mortar that you show and a HE L15A3 without a fuze.

The practice looks repainted as it has no body markings. L67A1 plug fuze rep No162 Mk 10 with adaptor.
Plug made by FHS 71, Who is this maker? 16 tpi threads.

The HE L15A3 needs a fuze or adaptor plus the No162 fuze. The threads are finer and smaller diameter
What is the correct fuze for the HE? N27?

Last query is what igniter screws into the base? Any photos or drawings of the headstamps?
I hope this helps a bit but it is not the answer to your query.
