10Turkeys Report post Posted August 6, 2020 Well here's what she says From the pics it looks like a HE round with a training fuse on it. She says that even if it's a training round that sometimes they are charged. Above the band there should be a number on it probably M-107 or M-110. Her qualifications are for real and she said that it shouldn't be hanging around and to call someone to dispose of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tropicalmulch Report post Posted August 6, 2020 I was in an artillery unit for a short period of time. So im not an expert but our guns were 155 toweds. The band with the rifling marks should be brass. The rifling should be fairly deep. It should be heavy in weight, obviously, somewhere around 100 lbs. As far as our dummies went. They were all painted blue. Again not an expert only made it to the range about 5 times Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

10Turkeys Report post Posted August 6, 2020 In the mid and late 80's we shot up a lot of Vietnam era ordnance in Florence, a few of the HE rounds were duds and a lot of the Illum rounds were duds. If I ran across anything down there or anywhere I wouldn't mess with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Curtis Reed Report post Posted August 7, 2020 They responded and although it was inert, I didn’t get to keep it. They disposed of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can’t help it if you are too dense to read (not to mention write... check your grammar). That’s not my problem. But in all seriousness.. thank you for your significant contribution to this thread!
