Item Description
Original Item: Only One Available. Totally inert and demilitarized according to BATF guidelines with hollow body and inert fuse. This mortar round cannot be converted to an explosive device and is not available for export.
This is a hard to find WWII 1969-Dated M49A2 Practice Mortar Round, for the U.S. 60mm M2 Mortar. This cartridge is fired in 60mm mortars M2 or M19 for use against personnel and materiel, providing both fragmentation and blast effect. This example comes in its original husk.
The complete round consists of a projectile body, a point detonating fuze, a fin assembly, four increments of propellant charge, an ignition cartridge, and a percussion primer. The projectile body is of pearlitic malleable iron (PMI), and is threaded internally at the nose to accept the fuze and at the base to accept the fin assembly.
The projectile body of the M49A2 is of forged steel and is filled with flaked TNT. This example is in very good condition, with original arsenal markings stamped into the mortar round body:
SW-2-10-69-60MM-M49A2E1
The fuze is unmarked. The husk is well-marked on the side.
This is a great chance to pick up a scarce Vietnam War dated inert mortar round in its original husk.
