I do have a 20 Pdr projectile, picked it up 30 years ago when moving around an impact area, recognized it right away and grabbed it. I don't have the cartridge though...
There's a few others, my 6 Pdr, 81mm training, 60mm training, 37mm cartridge from what was the new antiaircraft guns and my complete 40mm. It's painted wrong though, I should fix that.
Nice ones Jim my 20pdr projie is unfired (inert) has a fake fuse which is fine by me as the driving band is untouched. Those mortar rounds are they U S Army prac ones!
Took a full length pic of the Centurian 20Pdr case with the projie in the case there is a 303 round bottom Rt for scale it is quite a weighty piece when together.
Now I have the color to paint my smoke round... The 81MM and 60MM are both solid cast, the bodies are unmarked. The tailfins of the 60 are marked 60mm M5 and the 81 tailfins are marked CCM. I think the pattern is the same for US or CDN but these came from our system.
