A 3 Pounder Mark III shell case from 1917, Cordite filled (CF) Lot 17 made by Kynoch (KN) I think but can't find the KN mark.

I see you have some Indian rounds. I have two paper packets of 10 rounds of .303 from Kirkee, India that I got years ago. They are dated 1940 from memory.
Regards
Peter.

The Indian one is K42 so I assume Kirkee 1942 :cool:

Not sure what the Snap Cap's are for but they are very well made.
