George, Sweet box of ammo! I love to see the old stuff. I would bet your pistol will be a great shooter. I collected Colt pocket auto's before Lugers and I love the Browning design. John Browning was truely a genius. He disigned the first automatic shotgun in 1896..I have taken several of them completely apart for gunsmithing and cleaning. I cannot imagine making one from scratch in a small machine shop! Doing that gives a guy true appreciation for Mr. Browning.
