Dad burned 2 copy paper boxes of bandoleers because "they were taking up space".

I have two ham cans of AP in clips and bandos left,  LC52. At this point the clips and bandos are worth at least as much as the ammo. 2$ apiece for clips and over 5$ ea for cloth bandos. My dad had hundreds of those when I was a kid. I used to cut them up to use the webbing for stuff.

Totally dig it. And this is why I am not ashamed to be called a hoarder. Fuck your neat freak anti clutter faggotry.

Yeah, those were some true salad days.  I have a lifetime supply of zmax bullets that I got dirt cheap.

I couldn't even begin to count how many of these I wasted.
hundreds of the cardboard sleeves; I considered them useless.
It's painful to even think about.

I really need to host more pics

Very cool.

I was going to comment that I have at least one gun that will chamber all of them.

The 30 Carbine is the only one I have only a single gun that will chamber the cartridge.

How is that possible?

you need to fix that fuckery

I'd only want the original boxes for display not the new stuff

Got on the carbine train late. The one I bought from the CMP cost my plenty but, man! Does she shoot!

I'll add a few more , as the chance arises. Mine is a Sawanaw S'G', made just three hours from me. I want a Standard Products (made in Port Clinton, OH. About a half hour from me) and IBM (because having a carbine made by International Business Machines seems cool.)

I _should_ have been buying them, when they were being sold for a song, almost literally in my back yard.

According to Kit Up, it will be $25 per box - https://www.military.com/kitup/2018/01/23/winchester-shoots-new-line-ammo-through-world-war-ii-classic.html

Not really - Hornady ($20+ per box) and PPU (around $15 per box) already makes this. If this comes on the market as $25 - not too many people are going to buy it, except for nolstagia's sake. I'll buy a box, just to have one - but other than that, I don't plan on buying this to shoot, unless I could score PPU cost prices.

That'd be awesome ~ though I could kind of see a safety concern with getting actual WW2 ammo mixed up with these modern rounds (headstamp-wise).

Well therein lies your problem - you're shooting Korean ammo to begin with. Some of their headstamps are good ... but a few of them have KNOWN bad track records (weak/brittle brass, case ruptures, neck splits, etc). LC and HXP ammo will be fine, so long as it's been stored properly. I've been shooting ammo from the 50-70's without issue so far.

Full length brass 12ga ammo like this?



I am not much of a shotgun person, but that would interest me more than the rifle and pistol ammo.

Really! +1

Is that you or from when Subnet was smoking meth recreationally??

Im down for some M2.  This is big news!
