If it was filled with Non explosive material why did the EOD get it??
Not everything needs to be destroyed.

It looks like a US M1 105mm, But about every nation has their own copy of it. But as far as the wax filler it could have been a practice round. It was fired and fuzed. The fax may have acted as a ballist or someone fired a training aid.
