    Large bomb tail ? and a 57-60mm grenade. sweden/norway bofors ?

    I have just bought these 2 pieces...
    However i dont really know what they are. Can anyone tell ?
    The seller told me the items came to Denmark from sweden or norway as metal scrap from a bofors factory many years ago together with all kinds of random trash metal, and was picked by his friend at the scrap yard.

    The grenade is 57-60mm in caliber and is 675mm from end to end



    On the 'bomb' The tail is 38 cm wide and the whole thing is 54cm high and is solid aluminum




    Any help is appreciated
