Subdeacon Joe Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Need some help here. On the Mojave Desert group a guy posted these photos. Found near Death Valley, says it's "3 to 4 inches" in diameter. Primer cup from caseless artillery? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Widder, SASS #59054 Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 I saw one of those once at a crash site at Area 51. The one I saw had some strange markings (writing) on it and was impervious to fire. PLUS..... it had a tendency to float in mid air when in the sun light. Beyond that, I'm restricted to say anything else..... EDIT: I might add that Jabez Cowboy also knows what it is but he's restricted to make any comments about it. And if ask, he'll deny any knowledge of it or its usefulness in levitation. ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utah Bob #35998 Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 Well, 3” would be 75mm. 4 would be 100, maybe 105 I think there was a prototype round for the old M551 Sheridan but I don’t know the size or configuration. But the military has an obsession with markings on everyting. Part of a training SABOT round? I dunno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
