Hello,
can anyone identify the manufacturer please?
someone suggest Bohumil Hàjek
regards

7,5cm vz 15 H 3 1937.jpg
 
Is "H" the indication for Hajek? The H is also seen on the pretty uncommon 9 cm cases. I also notice the letter "F" which I think is pretty uncommon. Any idea what that is?

Yes, I think H is Hájek. Among other things, he also produced: ... artillery cartridges. Military supervision through ZTÚ 8 (Armament Technical Office 8 /Prag/...) which took over production for the army and export in this company (those are the lion symbols with the letter and number on the cartridge)Do you have a photo of a 9cm cartridge when it was possible, including a side view and the length of the cartridge?i.e. is it a 9cm mortar M.17... or 9cm PL vz.12/20?

I don't have the actual collection anymore, my 2 cases were 90x78R100 and marked 9 cm vz28, both dated 1930, with the large "H".

For the army as a whole, it was codified in 1921. When it was ordered that military material, including ammunition, be marked with indelible marks by engraving, stamping or burning. The symbol, the Lion or the Small State Emblem of the Czech Republic, was determined in conjunction with other data. According to which it will be possible to trace which acceptance commission carried out the acceptance into the property of the army.


Military supervision through (Armament Technical Officer) which took over production for the army and export in this company(those are the lion symbols with the letter E , F .... placed to the left of the lion (Czech emblem) and to the right of the lion is the double digit of the year 37 i.e. 1937
