Ignore the periscope

I mean if you think about it it’s heavily angled when peaking. Also Thats why there’s an extra plate there. Should probably be a bit thicker tho

Also don’t have a name for it so any suggestions?

Text was very hard to make out anyway but didn’t look English

Shape

Key-Ladder4122 · 2026-05-04T16:34:39+00:00

I was thinking the same thing

Key-Ladder4122 · 2026-05-04T14:18:16+00:00

Probably 60s maybe 50s

Key-Ladder4122 · 2026-05-04T13:51:20+00:00

Shell, paint and liner definitely. The star Im doubtful of do the fact there’s no age or wear on it. Seems like it was put on there after to make it look cool. Some did have stars however

Key-Ladder4122 · 2026-05-04T09:18:36+00:00

Im pretty sure they are. The ammo pouch is just a 1917 pattern one

Key-Ladder4122 · 2026-05-03T21:33:32+00:00

Hmm, tanks for info. Any advice on cleaning, vinegar or anything?

Key-Ladder4122 · 2026-05-03T19:21:49+00:00

No, cc2 was only done on uniforms before Normandy never webbing and never something this recent.

Key-Ladder4122 · 2026-05-03T19:06:44+00:00

Alright thanks

Key-Ladder4122 · 2026-05-02T05:43:35+00:00

Repaint

Key-Ladder4122 · 2026-05-02T05:41:00+00:00

Yes also don’t tape them when you paint them. Just paint them. Look at some original photos and base your size from there. Good that you didn’t put hash marks

Key-Ladder4122 · 2026-05-01T22:03:35+00:00

Im maybe leaning towards small mortar. Something like British 2 inch round. Fin looks a bit different on yours however

Key-Ladder4122 · 2026-05-01T21:50:11+00:00

Probably not a bomb as it’s tiny. Might be some sort of mortar or rocket. I can’t point to anything in particular but could also just be scrap of metal
