This mortor shell has a hollow centre with a 1 ¼ inch diameter fuse hole it the top. The wooden Boxer fuse is in excellent condition and is called the ‘Fuse Time Wood Boxer Mortor Large’ and was used in 13, 10 and 8 inch mortor high explosive projectiles. This fuse measures 7.4 inches in length as opposed the normal Boxer fuse which was half the length. This fuse was designed to be used in very large projectiles enabling the fuse to reach the explosive content. The fuse has radial graduation rings round the body, 1 inch apart from the base with holes drilled spirally from the 1 inch ring to the number 6 ring. These graduations were used to give a maximum delay of approximately 30 seconds.

INERT DEACTIVATED. British WW2, PIAT (Projector Infantry Anti-tank) HEAT (High Explosive Anti Tank) Round With Fuse. Sn - 19579 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. This projectile retains some of its original green painted finish and is complete with its original alloy nose fuse and screw on fuse holder. The PIAT has its original hollow charge nose cone which is held on by a screw on pressed steel collar. 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. Sn 19579 £395.00 |
