For your consideration is this WWII AN-MK 43 miniature practice bomb. These bombs are used for low-altitude horizontal, or dive-bombing, practice. The three bombs are similar in physical appearance, but differ basically in the metal used to cast the body. Bombs are used with the AN-Mk 4 practice bomb signal that is a blank 10-gauge shotgun shell (extended length). Signals contain a black powder expelling charge and a red phosphorous pyrotechnic mixture. These bombs are also used with the MK5 signal that contains a fluorescein dye and is actuated by impact on water. When the Mk5 signal is installed, the firing pin assembly is not used. The condition of this bomb is good, with no obvious signs of damage to the bomb itself; the bomb is not charged and the compartment is empty of powder. The measurements of this of this practice bomb are 8 1/4" x 2" x 2".
