<p>[QUOTE="springfld.arsenal, post: 293935, member: 54"]Both German 77mm field gun cases, top one fired and bottom one unfired. Someone found a live round and took the projectile out and dumped the propellant. Primer is still live unless someone disarmed it from inside of the case which is quite possible, you should be able to tell by looking in with a decent flashlight. The end of a live primer will be sealed with wax, varnish, something like that.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
