CS Fuse Striker
« on: May 02, 2017, 12:54:28 PM »
Dug this striker at Port Hudson in a Confederate impact area and I believe it to be the correct striker for the Archer Safety Pin Percussion Fuse.  Just thought I would run it by you guys to help with the ID.  Any input would be appreciated.

I agree with your assessment Ronnie.  Only the CS ones have the wires by the nipple to hold the percussion cap in place.
