It is pre WWI.

It is the case for a German 7.92x57mm S Patrone made at Spandau as the 10th lot of 1911.

The charger is an American one for the .30 inch round and could be any vintage from 1906 to WW2.

I was just reading an american article about charger clips and they were suggesting the 3 side bump type were g98,any thoughts ?

[TonyE]

Ammo is my speciality, not chargers and clips, so I cannot comment. However, I think that is is an American charger but could be wrong (and often am).

Hopefully we have a member who can answer the question.

I should have said that one "S" stands for Spandau and the other to indicate it is the "S" patrone.

Cheers

I agree with the charger clip being a First World War type German one, I have a relic one that was found near Ypres. Cheers.

I also agree the clip is early German,I think the HS should be read as lot 11 of 1910 ?
