Unknown Cartridge Case

Im assuming the Cartridge Case is German from the markings.
My best guess was 5.7-cm Maxim-Nordenfelt. Can anyone confirm?
Thanks,

Jon

Hello,

Quite correct. German manufactured casing for captured Belgian and Russian Nordenfeldt guns. These too were used as main armament in the A7V.
