Hi Steinar,

Thanks for your elaborate answer (and interesting photographs). I think I wouldn't mind spending some time in your attic

It would be interesting to see, and have, an overview of Norwegian army box labels used. I have only one packaged box of Raufoss ammunition here, made in 1963.

I can imagine that the combination of lacquered steel cases and sintered iron or steel jacketed ammunition was not appreciated. Eastern Germany also kept using the 16-round box layout for many years after WW2. Why change a good design?

Again, thanks for showing!

@Composite: FFV would be Swedish made? •Förenede Fabriksverken, Karlsborg, Sweden
