Fuze ID Help...

[DJMyers]

All~

This is on a WWI and WWII training area. We have found three fuzes that are just like this. It is a PTT Fuze, just can't ID. There are no markings on any of them and by the stem, I assume that it is used in the Shrapnel Rounds. It is NOT a M1907, We have one of those also and it is very different. The Idea is it is a MKIIIA1 Time Fuze, but that also does not match up correctly. Any help and diagrams would be appreciated. Thank-you.

I would suggest a few more photos of the side and top of the fuze, and maybe washing off the dirt first. It would make things easier.

Yes..

There is a full up photo of this on a webpage but I can't get an good ID. It is a 15 second fuze from 1898. That is all I have right now.

It is under Time Fuzes, it is the first fuze on the left.
