I have one ww2 german made bugle that's grey painted steel, markneukirschen maker, 43 dated, its in the key of C (or the mouthpiece is?)
sorry one more question, the shell case, is that for a bofor's and is that stencilling?
Don't have a German bugle yet. The shell casing is 40mm Headstamp 1942 with British broad arrow among other markings. I was going to polish it up but saw the stenciling when I got home and figured I would lose that by polishing. The stamping is an arc over a T. Then B 28F then a square box with an L inside, Then Can. Is this Canadian? You would think it would be the Arrow inside the C if it was. Brian
