This 30-40 cartridge has a FA 1904 headstamp and the bullet is lead - note the special crimp.

Can anyone identifiy this cartridge (guard duty or training ? )

Looks like a guard cartridge. Refer toHistory of Modern U.S>.Military Small Arms Ammunition 1880-1939 Vol.Iby F.W.Hackley,WH Woodin &E.L..Scranton Chapter 7. Local Library used to shelf it and had a decent selection of Arms ammo and related subject items. They were taken off the shelf around 2001 Hope this helps
