Member
hello all, i joined up after doing research on about 20+ Artillery, Naval and AT cases that i brought at a Estate sale, most of the cases turn out to be from N.Z Military Weapons from WW2-1980s with a 3.7" ACK ACK Rnd and 4.5" MK6 Naval Rnd topping my list of buys
from all the cases 2 are unidentifiable by myself if members here could help out any that would be appreciated

cheers lee N.Z
