@Marty Henry Yep 3.7cm Flak 18, first of that series. My uncle brought them back with him after the war. He probably had a few close encounters with these as he was a wireless operator air gunner (WAG) in a Lancaster.

Oh yes I nipped off and forgot to come back to this :XD:

You guys are all budding cartridge collectors! I started seriously collecting cartridges after accumulating a dozen or so rounds from trying out hunting rifles in several different calibres back in the 80s. My collection now runs to over 12,000 rounds. . If you are interested further, join the NZ Cartridge Collectors Club- have a look at www..kandb.co.nz/nzccc/
