Does anyone have any information on this item?
It's a Mk 10, 25 Pdr Base ejection.
Externally it's identical to a Mk10 chem round, but internally it's very different. (I can't remember what the base plate was like but have a feeling that it was a chem base plate because we were expecting a liquid fill on the x-ray)
The fuze is to the left of the picture off the screen.
It has an identical piston to that of a Mk 10 but instead of a liquid fill, it's loaded with concave phosphorus discs.
Again i don't have any info on the discs, as the guy who dem'd it used enough PE to destroy a house.
This was destroyed a few years ago, but i wondered if anyone had seen one of these before or had any info on it?
The quality isn't great but you can see the piston, threads for the fuze and discs.
