EOD - bombs and bullets
I took some pics of my demilled French L. Gr. Mle 37 5cm Mortar for a guy on another forum, and thought I would share them here as well.
These apparently were used after capture by German forces, especially Fallschirmjager I am told.
This one has at least two WaA popped on, both on the covers for the leveling bubbles. I am not sure if these were even on the original French mortars, the one on the base seems to have been added, the one on the tube seems to fit in a pre-existing dovetail, so maybe there was one in this position.
I paid very little for this from a guy who didn't know what it was (well, he knew it was a mortar, but not what type, or who used by) so I don't believe they were whacked on to enhance the price....
