    UK source for WW2 shells please..?

    Hi,
    I'm looking for some standard WW2 single artillery/anti-tank cases/shells to augment my militaria collection:

    German: 88mm, 75mm, 50mm, 37mm

    British: 25 pdr, 17 pdr, 6 pdr

    Preferably within the UK to keep postage costs reasonable.

    Any ideas please?

    Thank you,

    Stoneleigh fair by Coventry end of the month is the place to go

      The German stuff varies greatly in condition as the majority of the cases are steel and therefore suffer from rust.

      If you want I might have a few spare things.

          Those prices are a joke. Thanks for the tips guys.

            Most Uk ordnance collectors use either the BOCN site or specialistauctions.com
            However the 17pdr 6pdr and 88mm calibres you want are highly collectable in any form and particularly in tank/anti tank configurations.
