Hi Chaps,
I have a couple of 40 mm Bofors in the collection.
The question is how come they are different sizes of cases and odd differences to the projectiles?
Mick seems to think some cases are cut down,but the projectiles seem to fit snugly?
I do like these and will end up `keepers` but i am curios as to whats happened?
I assume there has been a bit of the case on 2 of them lost during de-ac in the past?
I picked up 2 of them last weekend,was a lucky boy but i had to dig through piles of packing crates to find them!
cheers
