mancpal Posted 28 August , 2022 Share Posted 28 August , 2022 Sorry I can’t help but it has the crows foot so an allied item. Looking forward to finding out what it is. Simon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FROGSMILE Posted 28 August , 2022 Share Posted 28 August , 2022 It reminds me of a cable and connector for joining to a socket on a radio headset, perhaps for WW2 rather than WW1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trenchtrotter Posted 30 August , 2022 Share Posted 30 August , 2022 Rod from British rifle grenade I think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If what I thought was a cable is a distorted steel rod then I think you’re bang on correct TT. Edited 30 August , 2022 by FROGSMILE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harley1962 Posted 30 August , 2022 Author Share Posted 30 August , 2022 Yes it is bent steel rod not cable so think trenchtrotter has identified for me. Thankyou trenchtrotter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Michelle Young Posted 30 August , 2022 Admin Share Posted 30 August , 2022 Is it still likely to go bang? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
