Product Description

Original pre-First World War Belgian 7.65×53mm Mauser military cartridge, dated 1912 and manufactured by Cartoucherie Russo-Belge (CRB), Liège, Belgium.

The 7.65×53mm Mauser was the standard Belgian Army rifle cartridge during this period, used in the Belgian Model 1889 Mauser rifle and carbine.

This attractive early example features a brass cartridge case, a distinctive long, silver-coloured round-nose projectile and the original CRB 12 headstamp.

Manufactured two years before the outbreak of the First World War, this cartridge represents an interesting period in Belgian military ammunition production.
