Re: ammo on sale

Some reasonable prices at the Mesquite Gun Show today and tomorrow (30-31 May) LOTS of reloads and cheap prices ($17 for 50 FMJ 9MM), but I'm leery of reloads from a stranger.

I really don't know. Back in the day when I was still active duty I could have looked up the lot number and come up with a year of manufacture. I suspect they are old but probably more like the 50's or 60's.

Maybe I'll do some research first.

If they are from the 1950's or 60's, that would be a keeper for me. You never know, some collector may figure there is a value to them.
Winchester advised they were made in 1982, so, no antique value :lol:

Re: ammo on sale

I recovered a coupla boxes of .45 1911 ball from my father's closet after he passed away.

Is there any reason why I shouldn't shoot them?
