Hi All,

OK, I lied as I had to put on the red suit and dig deep into my pockets for this one......I have only seen a handful of them here in Oz over the years.

It is the first one that has the gaine booster, which actually screws on/off!!!!!

It is a Japanese Army Type 92 large bomb nose fuse typically used on 250Kg bombs.

Dated 5th month Showa 17 (May, 1942) Osaka arsenal stamps.

Enjoy!

Cheers
Drew
