WWII Japanese 37mm Cannons

Post by SteveM8 » Sun Sep 22, 2013 8:19 am

I found this Japanese 37mm brass casing a few weeks ago. It is smaller than the more common AT gun round. It took me a while to clean the crud off it, but I learned that there was a smaller, tripod mounted 37mm cannon that was fielded before the AT gun. Japanese 37mm AT gun AP and HE shells provided for comparison. Both casings have the same primer system.
