INERT DEACTIVATED. British WW2, PIAT (Projector Infantry Anti-tank) HEAT (High Explosive Anti Tank) Round & Fuze. - O 2252 INERT DEACTIVATED. This is a rare British WW2, PIAT (Projector Infantry Anti-tank) HEAT (High Explosive Anti Tank) round. The round is complete with its original nose fuse. The PIAT was designed in response to the British Army's need for a more effective hand-held infantry anti-tank weapon. It consisted of a steel tube, a trigger mechanism and firing spring, and was based on the spigot mortar system and instead of using a propellant to directly fire a round; the spring was cocked and tightened. When the trigger was pulled, it released the spring that pushed the spigot forward into the rear of the bomb. This detonated the cartridge in the base of the bomb, was then thrown forward off the spigot and if lucky re cocked the weapon for firing again. The PIAT possessed an effective range of approximately 100 yards. This system meant that the PIAT had several advantages, which included a lack of muzzle smoke to reveal the position of the user, the ability to fire it from inside buildings. The PIAT entered service in 1943 and was first used during the Allied invasion of Sicily that year; it remained in use with British and Commonwealth forces until the early 1950s. The PIAT replaced the .303 Boys anti-tank rifle which was adopted in 1937 and soon proved itself unable to defeating heavy armour. As well as being used in the anti-tank role, the PIAT was an effective way of opening doors on buildings at a safer distance and the resulting explosion was usually enough to subdue opposition in the building. The round has its original hollow charge cone and booster charge. The top of the hollow charge has an alloy fuze retained by a bayonet fitting pressed steel collar. This projectile retains much of its original green painted finish with a blue band near the nose with a narrow yellow line above and below it. The price for this round includes UK delivery and no licence is required to possess this inert round in the UK if retained as part of a collection or display. O 2252 £345.00 |

DEACTIVATED INERT. British, 1965 Dated, Seacat Naval Anti Aircraft Missile Proximity Fuze. - O 2246 DEACTIVATED INERT. Seacat was a British short-range surface-to-air missile system designed by Short Brothers of Belfast from the Malkara anti tank missile and was intended to replace the Bofors 40/L60 gun aboard warships of all sizes. It was the world’s first operational shipboard point defence missile system. The missile was designed so that the Bofors guns could be replaced with minimum modification to vessel, using existing fire control systems. Seacat traces its history ultimately to the Short Brothers of Belfast SX-A5 experiments to convert the Malkara anti-tank missile to radio control as a short range surface-to-air missile. This led to further modifications as the Green Light prototype and finally emerged as Seacat. As it was based on an anti-tank weapon, the Seacat was small and flew at relatively slow subsonic speeds. It was thought to be useful against first and second generation 1950s jet aircraft of Hawker Sea Hawk performance, that were proving to be too difficult for the WW2 era Bofors 40/L60 guns to successfully intercept. The missiles development started in 1958 and was first fitted to a Royal Navy ship in 1961, it being the first anti aircraft missile in use by the Royal Navy. The missile was fitted with a proximity fuze and this is one of the proximity fuzes fitted to the missile. Seacat was mounted on a powered four-round launcher which was smaller than the Mark 5 Twin Bofors and STAAG type mountings it replaced. It was also lighter, easier to maintain, and very easy to use. The fuze is mounted on a round plinth and measures 7 ½ inch square with rounded corners and 8 inches high, tapering to the top forming a rounded dome with a perspex shield for the proximity fuze. The white painted fuze is stencilled on the side FUZE G.M.E.K 11A1 SER No 1476R J.S.No 1336-99-1041-5983 G.C.L. NOV. /65. The price includes UK delivery and licence is required to possess this fuze in the UK if retained as part of a collection or display. O 2246 £395.00 |

The BAT and MOBAT were used until anti-tank guided missiles, such as Vigilant and MILAN, took their place in the 1960s. The WOMBAT remained in anti-tank platoons in Berlin to supplement MILAN until the late 1980s. This is a British, BAT (Battalion Anti Tank), 1984 dated 120mm (120x790R) HESH/T (High Explosive Squash Head) anti tank round.

SOLD SOLD (01/07) INERT DEACTIVATED. American, Unfired, 1.65 Inch (42x151R) Mountain Gun Cannister Round by Winchester Arms Company. Sn - 22677 INERT DEACTIVATED. The M1875 mountain gun is the mountain gun that was used by the United States Army during the last quarter of the nineteenth century. The gun was a piece of towed artillery on a 2 wheeled carriage and weighed approximately 3 ½ cwt. In the late 1800s the US Army needed a more modern field gun to support its forces, mainly for use with fast moving cavalry. In 1876 the US military started to buy the 1.65 inch Hotchkiss Model 1875 mountain gun from the French Hotchkiss Ordnance Company for the next 20 years. These light and versatile guns were to see action during the Indian Wars, and the Spanish-American and Philippine-American wars. The 1.65inch Hotchkiss Mountain gun fired two types of projectiles, a base fuze common shell and the cannister with hardened ½ inch lead balls. The gun broke down into two loads for easier mule transport with another pack mule required for carrying the ammunition. This is an unfired cannister round for the 1.65 inch Hotchkiss mountain gun produced by the Winchester Arms Company. The round has a round nosed brass projectile. The projectile has a thin brass wall and contained ½ inch hardened lead balls. Upon firing, the brass sheath broke up and released the lead balls in a shotgun fashion. The base of the projectile is rolled onto a brass baseplate. The projectile still contains the lead balls. The brass cartridge case is headstamped WINCHESTER R CO NEW HAVEN CT USA together with the Frankfort Arsenal government acceptance stamp. The price includes U.K. delivery and no licence is required to possess inert rounds in the UK if retained as part of a collection or display. Sn 22677 £0.00 |
