    Waited a looong time!

    Been after one of these for about 10 years I have 2 steel ones with a HEAT prac round in one of them plus what I was told is the rim carry handle for them.
    But the brass ones are just so damn rare as rocking horse doodoo.
    So I am really excited in getting it home and putting the prac round in it its for the Leopard 1 105mm main gun, wasn't cheap but not as much as I expected it to go for.

    I could weep then, I had two that were fired and kicked out the pistol port of a Leopard during a live fire while I watched. I went and recovered them in the spring while doing a MG range in the same spot... Sold them to a surplus dealer back in '96 when I was posted because I didn't want to transport such a big item. Years before I gave away my 155 smoke rd for the same reasons...
    Regards, Jim
