Once when we were doing live firing in Valcartier (1973 or 1974) we were given some 105mm smoke rounds manufactured in the US during WWII. When we opened them up we found that the cloth of the charge bags was rotten, and they would fall apart, spilling cordite everywhere, at the slightest touch. Needless to say the ammo was marked N/S and was sent back were it came from.

This gun has been the topic of discusion here before. I am not sure what thread it would be under though.
