lilfry14 Posted March 15, 2022 Share #3 Posted March 15, 2022 The picture link seems to be broken? Or I can't see it. Link to comment
GMPETE Posted March 16, 2022 Share #6 Posted March 16, 2022 This was for the U.S. 105mm Howitzer, used throughout WWII in all theaters. Link to comment
GMPETE Posted March 16, 2022 Share #7 Posted March 16, 2022 I should have also said that they stayed in service long after WWII with many different nations. Probably some still in use somewhere. Link to comment
Quest Master Posted March 22, 2022 Share #8 Posted March 22, 2022 Your 105mm M14 casing was reloaded (at least once) with a 1944 date on the casing, and a 1953 date on the primer, with two different Lot Numbers stamped onto the casing itself (GL and then LS). Each time the casing was reloaded, a new lot number was stenciled or stamped onto the casing. Link to comment
