You are right, it's a Belgian made copy of the British 2" HE mortar. I cannot remember what PRB stands for but I'm sure someone will tell us in the near future. You will find British design ordnance in the Belgian and Dutch inventory from the 1950's and 60's. As well as others. Grenades etc too, I even have a Belgian made No 75 hawkins mine/grenade Mk3 1950's dated. Tony.
