Here is my set of three different projectiles for the leichte Infantrie Geschutz 18...these came in a steel carrying case with a holder that carries 3 cases with charges, complete...

I will document it all and keep posting in this thread, but here are the projectiles...

2 HEAT projectiles, different fuzing, and an HE...lots of stenciling remaining which is cool...the HEAT projectiles retain their cone and tube assemblies when you unscrew the nose...

The first HEAT has the short fuze...nice ink stamping on the bottom...FES stamp on shell...
