Hi, could anyone help identify a primer marked 15II TCE 4AT and reccomend a web site to help identify such items.
Thanks, Ted

6 Pounder 7 Cwt primer

This percussion primer is typical of a 6 pounder cartridge along wiith other calibres.

One thing I am lacking is information on primers so will leave it to the other members to give you further information.

Out of all the usual primers one can find that seems to be the most difficult to come by.
