DEACTIVATED INERT. This is a mint Czech 30mm (30x210) target practice/tracer (TP/T) round for the M53/59 Praga anti-aircraft gun that was developed in the late 1950s and consists of a heavily modified Praga 6 wheeled drive truck chassis that was armed with a twin barrelled 30mm automatic gun mounted on the rear of the chassis. The gun was optically sighted so it could only be used in good conditions in daylight. Although the gun is obsolete in the anti-aircraft role it is still used as a ground support weapon against unarmoured or lightly armoured targets. This target practice round consists of a grey anodised steel cartridge case fitted with a steel screw in percussion primer. The cartridge case is headstamped 20 32 over 63 aym over UTK and crossed swords 63. The cartridge case is crimped to a steel iron driving banded projectile with a single row of 6 stab crimps. The projectiles nose fuse is replicated by an inert steel one. The projectile retains all of its original grey painted finish with a 5mm wide band above the driving band and is stencilled round the circumference in black 502-90. The price includes UK delivery and no licence is required to possess inert ammunition in the UK if retained as part of a collection or display. Sn 20842
