I thought this was interesting. My HE shell arrived with what appeared to be a standard KTM-1 fuse, but it has a "57" marked on it. It is dated 1940. There were dual and single driving band versions of the HE shell for this gun. The case is post war, but it is stenciled for the UO-271 HE round that is in it.
