Remembered Today:

What Shells are these please?


Stephen Barker

Recommended Posts

A colleague at work has the bottom of two cartridge cases, one inverted to fit over the other to make a round brass box with a lid on top.

One case has the following markings around the base:

GFSP 147 1916 SP1 97 MRZ

The other has:

250 JAN PATRONEFABRIK 1916 KARLSRUHE Sp255

Does this mean anything to anyone??

I'd be grateful for your ideas.

Thanks

Stephen

Should have added that these shells are between 3.5 and 4 inches diameter,
