I came across this aged little box of ammo. I think its Swiss! Any help for ID would be helpful~~Eric

Probably for the Swiss Ordnance revolver. Would need a close up of the head stamp to ID the manufacturer. TH

Made in 1960. 31.10.60 is the date of manufacture, IIRC.

Here are some more examples of Swiss boxes:

The Swiss are very informative on their headstamps and box labels.

Some boxes are written in German, French, and Italian, that with the Rhaeto-Rumantsch are the official languages of Switzerland

Getting so hard to find!

I'm afraid that the 9mm Steyr ammo will not work in any luger that I'm aware of. TH

Thank You My Friend~~

Nice boxes. These were made in Finland by Lapua for Interarms. They used military style boxes which received a fresh 'Interarms' label. Often, the old military label is still underneath :)

Here is an example of a Lapua box with the Interarms label, and one with the Interarms label carefully removed using some alchohol swabs.

Perfect examples. These 2 are my oldest! One from Germany

I use to wonder what RWS stood for; "Rheinisch Westfälischen Sprengstoff Fabriken." Roughly translated to English; "Rhine River Explosive Works."
