Any ideas on what this might be? I think its French. Images were taken at Aberdeen Ordnance Museum.

Dimensions are as follows:

Total length Max: 162 MM

Total length minimum: 153 MM W/O STRIKER

Exposed length maximum: 94 MM

Exposed length minimum: 83 MM W/O STRIKER

Diameter maximum: 22 MM


Any help is great.
