Finnish 7.62x53R/other cool 54R
« on: July 28, 2015, 07:27:33 pm »
 I've got  49 rounds of Finnish x53R, most of the lot is VPT and 1936 dated but dates range from 1935 to 1938. They are 1944 repacks and are on G.W.S stripper clips. I will get pics up as soon as possible, initial thoughts on these? I paid $3.00 each and bought all 3 and a stripper clip full that they had for a total of $9.00.
 Anybody else got any cool/rare x54R ammo?

You mean these racer?  ;) btw I usually stick over on gunboards but I'll expand my horizon.










And these arn't all I have. The Russian Imperial and that one Finnish round is my earliest for the two countries. I do need some original clips... ::)

I believe the hand written 1.05 means $1.05? Crazy this stuff and similar was so low in price and plentiful back then.
