This is an old projectile an old guy in town used for a door stop for over 30 years. Until I noticed it was still LIVE! Anyhoo, does anyone have any info on what size it is or what gun it went to? It says FRANKFORD on one side of the bottom and APSF or APSE on the other. Weighs in at about 12 pounds. From the style of letters I'd guess WW1 or earlier. Measures 3.3" outside to outside on the copper drive ring and 3.125 on the outside to outside measurement of the projectile itself. 7-1/2" tall to base of brass fuse. And before anyone loses their mind, I've no intentions of messing with the fuse....
