Hello Chris,

Hope you're well,

http://web.ukonline.co.uk/stephen.johnson/arms/mort.jpg

Please see above link for info on Primary and Secondary (Augmenting Cartridges) for the 3" Mortar.

Image

The Picture attached also shows a number of secondary charge containers, they are made of a thin rubberised type of material.

I've also seen examples of them made from a clear cellulose type of plastic..... similar to the anti gas eye shields but thinner......

Hope this is what you're looking for.

Regards
Geoff

Actually its not Geoff - but thanks very much anyway for the link. What I am after (I think) is a close up photo of the Mortar bomb - 3rd down on the right hand edge of your last photo - difficult to see on the screen but it looks to be what I am looking for.

Chris
