My son's collection

Re: My son's collection

I can send you a 30mm Bushmaster case, no projectile or primer though.
 
Re: My son's collection

If you want a .264 Winchester Mag and a .300 Winchester Mag. Don't see a .45 Colt in there either, P.M. me your address

I just moved, but I think I have some .32-20 Winchester and some .250-3000 Savage cases and a .45-120 I'll toss in if I can locate them

Re: My son's collection

Drop me your pm I'll send over a 9mm rimfire shotgun shell. Made only by Fiocchi anymore. They were made in Europe as garden guns, for killing rabbits and pest that ate up the gardens. Or at least the gun in my bossman's collection. The shotgun is real small not a lot bigger than a red ryder bb gun. It's a single break open action. Just a neat little gun and great beginner shotgun for small kids to take small game hunting.

My bad the shotgun is a single shot bolt action. Had something else on my mind.

Re: My son's collection

I can send you a 10ga, 16ga, .410 bore, and maybe a 28ga shotshell if you want. They are all empty cases though. I will also look through my misc cases and see If I can find anything else to send.
 
Re: My son's collection

I got a 40mm dummy round for a MK19. I wont be home until at least May, though

Re: My son's collection

It is coming along very well. I can't thank those that have helped out enough, it would have been impossible without their kindness. The letters to my son that have come with some of the donations have been a very cool addition.
We are now trying to figure out what type and size of display case we want to make. I have been a bit lax the last week in keeping up with the cataloging of all of the pieces. I anticipate getting some new photos up in the next few days.

Thanks again to all that have helped out with this litle project
 
Re: My son's collection

Thanks again to all that have helped

Re: My son's collection

Wow thats nice! Its funny that you have a Mi St Police and a Battle Creek. I was going to try for the MSP until Granholm F'ed Michigan up. but hey I am still in the miltary and gave you a 40mm round. btw it looks good in the collection. I forgot to put a patch or 2 in there.
 
Re: My son's collection

Great idea for a collection. I will have to pass that idea along to my nephews. Good luck with your effort.
 
Re: My son's collection

Man, thats incredible! Would love to have a collection like that.

I wonder if you could build a case with clear shelves and an angled mirror under each one, so you can see the head stamp while they are standing up?
 
Re: My son's collection

My boy and I have been throwing around a ton of ideas for a display case but that is definetly one Idea that I will look at.

Thanks for the input

Re: My son's collection

Nice collection.
Wouldn't a "mirrored image" be difficult to read?
 
Re: My son's collection

I included a 300 Savage with some kind of a nickel and bronze tip. It's factory, and probably from well before I was born.

Re: My son's collection

This is a great collection. Still looking for more? I will have to look through the list and see what I can do. 300 whisper? 7WSM? 25WSSM case? 7.5x55 swiss? 300WSM? 7.62x54R?
 
Re: My son's collection

I may have missed it on your list but could you use 6.5x47 lapua and 25-06. I also have some old super-x shotshell boxes that he might like.

Re: My son's collection

PM sent gents I think I got everybody. The help is greatly appreciated. We are starting to do some research on the shells that we do have as he wants to do a report for school on them.
