shippingsteel Posted 31 January Share Posted 31 January I believe the case shown was made by the Cossipore Gun & Shell Factory in India, and dated 28th July 1911. Not an expert but what tipped me off was Broad Arrow over I which I recognise as an Indian Government inspection marking. Cheers, SS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shippingsteel Posted 2 February Share Posted 2 February Surprised nobody else has dropped by with additional information. Given the Indian connection the KF marking indicates the case was filled at the Kirkee Arsenal. However the primer was apparently made by R.A.Lister & Co in the UK and dated August 1918.
