Norrie Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Great things @Fred Karno's Army, love the grenade relics, and particularly like the shotgun cartridge brass end cap...:) I had no idea they uised shotguns...must have been for clearing trenches...:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Fred Karno's Army Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 (edited) Ideal for the job Norrie look at the US M1897 Boomstick ,not sure if this is a shotgun or flare cartridge base to be honest mate,sure some of the others will know.(Also used in the Stokes mortar base too).

Eley make cartridges for shotguns, but, didnt know they made them to be used for flares...excellent stuff...did a search, first one up...was this beast...handy for dealing with foxes....:) Edited August 11, 2016 by Norrie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
