Thanks for putting this on for me JTP ,a bit of extra info although it was found on an old anti-tank/grenade range we have found 1000s of 2inch mortars in the vicinty,It is totally empty the top ? resembles closely a practice 2inch mortar but it is will not accept a cap from the 2inch prac round,its correct in size but smaller in depth.The large hole in the bottom DOES NOT go all the way through,it goes approx 3/4 of the way.It has a series of holes going round near the top ? as can be seen in the photos.
We are unsure as to what this is wether its ordnance ,part of a target or even domestic scrap(farm machinery ?)
Positive id required please.
thanks in advance Allan
