    Help ID'ing Artillery Shell

    Hi All,

    I just picked up a 4" artillery shell from a guy over on CMPicon. Neither of us know what it is though. The base flange is 5" OD, base of the shell is 4 5/8" OD, mouth is 4" ID, OA case length is 25 11/16", it has two cannalures below the mouth, and weighs right at 10 lbs. The base lettering consists of: "1939", PB, C/32, and the logo which I drew up because it's so small. See pix below.





    TIA!

    Russ
