Hi Everyone,

Have a couple of unknown primers for ID.
The 2 x larger ones are electric primers and the smaller one I believe is an Australian made one (ME?) for the naval 2pdr Pom Pom?

All thoughts welcome
Thanks
Cheers
Drew

Hey Drew. I should have replied earlier.
Primer 1 is UK for the 105mm Tank (105 x 617R).
Primer 2 is Australian by Lithgow also for 105mm Tank. Both are missing the long powder tubes.
Primer 3 is Australian for 2Pr Vickers (40 x 157R) as you guessed by MF and filled at Maribyrnong,Vic.
