Here is a WW1 Russian 76.2 mm shell casing, dated 1916. This shell casing was made by Federal Press Steel Company which was in Milwaukie. Russia contracted with the US and other countries to manufacture weapons and ordnance as they were underequipped to start with and could not meet production quotas. Now I just need the projectile and fuse assembly.
