Nice case, I'm not sure what it is, at first I thought it was a 13pdr but its a naval case and too long for that. Hopefully someone more knowledgeable will know

Greetings Joel,

You have a cut down 3 pr case, British Naval gun. The dimensions should be 47 x 411mm and the case was more heavily bottlenecked and longer that the standard 3 pr case usually found. Take a look at this thread http://www.bocn.co.uk/vbforum/threads/71149-Unusual-VSM-casing-on-ebay?highlight=pounder+vickers
