Please see the photos of an Italian 42 x 185 cartridge case. Is it normal for these cases only to have the manufacturers details but no date or inspectors stamps? And is it WW1 or WW2?
many thanks, Dave

Italian 42x 185 Lorenz Tempini cartridge case
- Thread starter Rrickoshae
- Start date
Hmm, so this isn’t the only one. Strange that it has no date or inspection stamps - maybe those identifying characters were stencilled on the case rather than stamped into them. Hopefully someone with a knowledge of Italian ordnance will advise us
