Rare British 3.7 inch mountain howitzer mk II brass shell case dated 1944 in super condition.
Introduced, officially, in February 1917 the 3.7 inch Mountain Howitzer broke down into several loads for either man or mule packing. The barrel was in two halves joined by a junction nut. Used during WW2 mainly in the Far East and Italy, it equipped the mountain batteries and was also used by the airborne artillery until replaced by the US 75 mm Howitzer. It was not declared obsolete until 1960.
