Peter,

Welcome to MLU. You will find that the members have a wealth of knowledge and will be able to give you an answer,(I can't). Please tell us a bit more about your interests.

Rick.

The C323 indicates Cartridges, though a quick search fails to find 323. I suspect it is either for 4.5 or 5.5 propellant charges or 3.7" AA rounds, all of which were classified as cartridges.

Nice item, the C323 Mk I contained 2 x Rounds 17-Pr APCBC. There was also the C310 which held the same rounds or H.E. Shells Mk I T.

Of the ones I have seen out here, a few have 3.7" painted on them.

The C235 (which kinda looks like a C323 but isn't) held 2 x 3.7 in rounds.

[Peter McNutt]

Thanks for the information in regards to the question. Never previously seen one such as that, and to be honest at I wasn't thinking it was for rounds.

Cheers,

Pete

Nice... Would be great to get one of them if one pops up for sale this side of the pond.
