This site is all about WWII ammunition, a good guide to headstamps and more to come. Also has a forum for the discussion of inert ammo, mostly in German but apparently they are also translating it into English. Worth a visit.
Munitions Technology International, Erhard and Kristy Koch's new site. Outstanding, watch for this one to expand shortly.
An excellent site for Japanese launchers
Ed has decided to maintain a site for us. Excellent reference for Japanese markings and other things too. Watch for this one to expand as time goes on. I certainly recommend you check it out.
Here is a new site opening up from Spain, its all about grenades, but is in Spanish. I think you should be able to use one of the free translation services to convert it to the language of choice. Looks like a good one so keep your eye on it.

If you are interested in what I do in my spare time (when I'm not at work or editing this webpage) check out this website. Look through the entire site but the Museum is where I spend my time after retiring from the Regiment.
Redstone Arsenal produced most of the Chemical Warfare material for the US Forces during the Second World war. The Redstone Arsenal website has an excellent history of the Arsenal and gives some production figures as well as production figures for some of the munitions produced. All in all an excellent site, highly recommended.
