Steinar · 05-03-2006, 04:47 AM

With only one TV in the house and my wife watching Gilmore Girs.. It was a great time to find out how many different types of german ww2 9mm boxes I have.

Found these, and something tells me there is a lot more variations out there.. any arcive of such?

Hi Morgan,

I think you can easily spend a lifetime or two trying to find all sub-categories of WW2 9mm ammo, packaging and labels.

And then you have the ammo crates:
4160 cartridges, in 260 16-packs:
(this one contains my CD-collection nowadays. They fit perfectly)

..and I quess she would even blame me for spending all my time collecting sub-categorie ww2 ammo

Well.. I can't get into collecting these.. promissed myself that I would limit my collection to Luger's only.

Have one paper box.. perhaps there where three of these in one wooden container the size of yours

Hi Morgan,

To get the numbers right, I'd expect 4 or 5 'bulk packs' containing 16-round pacs in one of these cases.

Neat stuff, isn't it?

Sure is

Not sure how many 16-round packs that is in the 'bulk pack', as it is unopened. I quess looking at the hight and with might reveal the number, but it's not at my location at the moment.
