Quest Master Posted July 28, 2021 Share #1 Posted July 28, 2021 I'm looking for reference on how the WWII British 6-pound shells (not casings) were marked differently from the U.S. 57mm counterpart. Both shells and casing were interchangeable (British QF 6-pound 7 cwt and U.S. 57mm M1 AT gun). I'm looking for color plates, TM images, or reference photos of the AP, APC, HE or any others. I have the reference for the U.S. rounds, only looking for the WWII British ones to see the difference. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Flick Posted July 28, 2021 Share #2 Posted July 28, 2021 As your question is directed at the British 6 pounder markings you might want to pose the question to the guys over at the British Ordnance Collectors Forum at http://www.bocn.co.uk/vbforum/forum.php They have many people quite knowledgeable on the British and Commonwealth ammunition and can probably answer your question easily.
