Drum contents! Centuries old jam!

Did they look like this?

If so, it is 1970s surplus ammo from Egypt. It was sold as cheap shooting and collectors ammo years ago. Quality was bad, split cases, bad primers, etc...

So unfortunately there is no Arabic history, other than imported surplus ammo, behind the drum.

Hi Gerben, you nailed it! That is it exactly! Too bad it's not earlier? It would have been more interesting. I was hoping we could blame it on Lawrance of Arabia ?? ..

.....But instead we have Forrest Gump, box a chocolates, kind of deal... Thanks Gerben, til.....lat'r......GT
