Thought to ask your opinions on this case, which I think is Spanish in origin, made by the Artillery Factory in Trubia, Asturias. The case is 385mm long, mouth of 75mm and rim diameter of 92mm. It is very similar to the Russian 76.2mm, but from the pictures you can see the rim is slightly larger and the primer is of the German C/12 type rather than the Russian standard. The designation 75/36 could be a model number, but I have not been able to identify any such gun. Potentially a reworked Russian field gun post the Spanish Civil War? Glad to have your thoughts.
