Hi Chaps,
With a lot of help from my main man ChrisBMG50,i now own a stockmine with repro charges. :)
Note the shape of the hole underneath? It seems that all the stockmines i perused have this 'off centre' shape?

There is another base with a more conical shape and other stock mine in green colour. Those "repro" charges are real ones surelly for instruction. The repro real charges are the ones in the pic.

Glad to help out mate. Stock mines were made in their thousands if not millions. There's a picture on the web of a road in Poland made out of stock mine bodies. The colour you have has an unusual pink tinge to it, most probaly to match the surrounding area it was planted as were most.
