Today, ambushed by these :xd:

Well I have a handy case for the 75 at any rate.

Fired 12pr MKVll D A 4-08 , a small hole for a cord, so at some time it had it's top with
lamp fittings.
18pr with real fuze drilled through and a 75 with false top, under this a tin plug ?
I have seen a plug like this before, a shipping plug for an unfilled projectile ?
