Product Description
An original inert German 7.92×57mm Mauser cartridge bearing the T B 3 1939 headstamp. This is a genuine early Second World War military cartridge manufactured during 1939, the year Germany entered the Second World War.
The T manufacturer's code identifies Metallwarenfabrik Treuenbrietzen GmbH, Werk Selterhof, one of Germany's principal military ammunition manufacturers. During the late 1930s, the factory produced large quantities of 7.92×57mm Mauser ammunition for the rapidly expanding Wehrmacht, before later adopting the better-known P25 factory code.
