WW11 Flare cartridge 1"
- Thread starter chamber rat
- Start date
Folks,
Does anyone know where I might find 1 or 2, WW11 flare cartridges (1 inch) for a Canadian/ British flare gun? Any color will do.
I would greatly appreciate the help in finding some.
Thanks,
Doug
Those are really rare...almost never seen. Good luck in your quest.

There are always a few at the Calgary Gun show on Easter Weekend. But get there early, they don't usually sit on the tables very long. Expect to pay $5 to $15 a round for wartime examples.

I have shot some of the stuff that I bought over the years. Mos of the Cdn stuff still works. I have had duds on the US stuff.
I have mine for display in my Bren Carrier, which needs 4 of each color. I prefer not to have live rounds while displaying.

HOLY COW MAN!!!!
World War Eleven!!???? I think we are thinking a little too far in the future to be getting that kind of equipment!
I know I have some around (same as 3rd. from left in RK's photos, with green stripe). I've recently moved and everything is in boxes. I've managed to find my Harrington & Richardson Mk VI 1" flare gun but not the flares. Due to major renos I will not be unpacking everything for a while yet but will let you know when I dig them out.
