Hello,

Photos from Chinese auction site kongfz.com. Said to be taken in a damaged ammunition storage in Changsha during WW2. Perhaps some kind of 15cm shells?

Two images from SA-Kuva archive (71210-60508):

Image 1: I think soviet 76.2mm ammo. Any idea ??
Image 2: I think soviet 50mm mortar grenades. Is this correct ?

On first photo is 85mm AA shell. Not shure about the model of the fuze but might say it is T6.

@Sturm: last pic, looks like a 21 cm Mrs. 18 to me, the shells are 21 cm Granate 37.
Most 21 cm Gr. 37 in the picture have a Az 23 umg, except 2 who seem to have been fitted with a Dopp.Z. S/90.
21 cm Gr. 37 had a soft iron drivingband, hence the code "FEW".

The 30,5 cm shell in the other post is a 30,5 cm Aufschlagzündergranate M 35.

Zünder,
