-
Original Item: Only One Available. The M2 4.2-inch mortar was a U.S. rifled 4.2-inch (107 mm) mortar used during the Second World War, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War. It entered service in 1943. It was nicknamed the "Goon Gun" (from its large bullet-shaped shells, monopod, and rifled bore) or the "Four-Deuce" (from its bore size in inches). In 1951, it began to be phased out in favor of the M30 mortar of the same caliber. Not Available for Export.
This is a lovely inert 4.2” chemical mortar round which has a myriad of markings denoting it as a Dummy or inert. The round was made inert for training purposes, and had several inert lifter packs installed on the bottom as shown. The round measures 20½” long.
The fuze is marked under the threading: BOOSTER M125A1 WTX-11-6-1974, dating the fuze to 1974. The round is marked on the side in ink:
