British No. 848 Bomb Fuze and Cutaway

Hi all, last year I posted a few pics of a huge haul of sectioned and complete bomb and artillery fuzes my father picked up at a flea market. I've finally been able to visit and take a few pictures of most of the collection. There are over 60 fuzes, most have a complete and then a professionally sectioned example. Some of the stuff I have no idea what it might be and I'll do my best to post it all over the next few weeks in the hope that I can get it all id'd for Dad. Almost all of this stuff is marked with a C -> indicating that at one time it was Canadian Military property. My father suspects that all the stuff was at some time part of an instructional selection of British/Canadian ordnance. First up is a British No 848 mk V fuze in wonderful condition.

Enjoy,

Greg
