Back to the .22lr stuff.

I picked up a pretty old box of DWM / BKIW .22lr dating from the 1920s. Giveways are the company name on the box 'Berlin Karlsruhe Industrie Werke A.-G. früher Deutsche Waffen -u Munitionsfabriken Karlsruhe i B' and the relatively small box size. They made the box as small as possible while still being able to stuff 50 rounds in it. With 64 x 34mm it is quite a bit smaller than it's later 72 x 37mm counterpart.
