471 boxes of ammo

Edward Tinker · 09-15-2021, 02:46 PM

I've been collecting these for about 8 years.

what you see - far left, no top is 471 loose I got from an auction. There were about 150+ loose rounds and 3 box bottoms and a full box.

L-R - top to bottom

471 Green box 0.33 pulver - has truncated bullets in it
.
471 slightly darker tan 0.35 pulver - most are 'serif' K's

471 471 taped heavily box, 0.35 pulver

471 lighter tan, 0.35 pulver

A box of 1940's that does not say 471 on it.

Pulver is powder charge

Not shown, but I have a 480C full and a 480C empty (pretty box) - these are 9mm
471A is in nice shape - 7.65mm in Carbine load.

Not that was common - containers for ammo was unique for the navy but ammo the same as far as I know.

yeah, I read it too - no offense to anybody, but I was army, so don't collect navy stuff - too expensive

But yes, after you asked, I looked it up
