short german 30mm AP (ww2)

[panzergranate]

Hi,
this is a german 30mm AP-shell, it weights 377g and was found in Rechlin. Because of the heavy weight, there must be a tungstencarbide-core in it. Does anyone have further informations on this shell?
regards
Bernhard

Hey PzGr,

Afaik the "experten" have not yet been able to establish wether this shot was meant for either MK 101/103 or MK 108. However, you are right on it being a "Hartkern".

greetz,

Menno.

I got one from a collector the last meeting with the request to cut it. I will publish a picture as soon as it's cut
