WW2 Era Ordinance 75mm & 40mm Bofors Listing ID: 3130228
Description
Kilgore 75662 area
US made brass 75mm howitzer blank dated 1943. Looks like it was a full length shell cut down for blank use instead of the later purpose built steel and aluminum cases. Some oxidation.
British 40mm Bofors shell dated 1945. Straight and crack free with a few minor dings. Has some old varnish that is flaking off. Fired solid projectile stays in the casing fairly well. I haven’t cleaned it up to see what model of projectile it is.
$50 cash for both. Not separating. Cleaning out my junk drawer and these take up a massive amount of space.
