WW2 German 10.5cm Howitzer Shell Casing Dated 1937 INERT

This item is a World War II-era German 10.5cm howitzer shell casing, dated 1937. The casing is made of brass and was originally designed to house the propellant charge for the 10.5cm leFH 18, the standard light field howitzer used by the German Army during the conflict. Markings on the casing include date and manufacturer stamps, providing authentication and historical context. The primer has been rendered inert, and no explosive components remain, making it safe for handling and display. This shell casing exemplifies the ammunition technology and design employed by German artillery units in the years preceding and during World War II. It serves as an artifact of military history, reflecting the industrial capabilities and logistical requirements of the era. This casing is suitable for collectors, historians, and those interested in 20th-century military ordnance.
