Although the pic I posted is too small to really see some of the old ammo boxes, one of them, a 20 round box of .44 Rem Mags that came from GEM (remember them?), is priced at $2.49 (I purchased these although it was just a little less than one weeks allowance and no questions asked when I purchased them). The old, old box of five 16ga slugs is $0.51.
I have a belt of twenty-three .50 BMG all dated 1943 (LC 43)....I wish I had not deactivated all of them because they're pretty much worthless now.....the belt is probably worth more than the dummies. I deactivated them by using a pipe cutter to remove the crimp, pulled the bullets, added a couple of drops of ATF to kill the primer, filled them with sand, and glued the bullets back in. Ah, the ignorance of youth!!
