Mysterious 37mm / Russian ? German ?

Thanks for the number of Mcleans. I have an example of the Mclean shell which came out of Finland. It is just like a US 1 pdr heavy made by PEMCo but with a narrow rotating band.Thanks again for the number bought.
 
I had one inert round at evilbay years ago and the winner was in USA - perhaps you? Finland had 5 guns left behind by Russians in 1918. They were in service until 1950's when the guns and 13.000 rounds of ammo were destroyed. One gun was salvaged in museum. Inert rounds pop up here occasionally and they obviously have been used as souveniers.
