[QUOTE="Dumpstick, post: 3060807, member: 41653"] 9mm Largo ammo, 24 rounds, if I counted correctly. [ATTACH=full]110612[/ATTACH] Back in about 1987, I purchased an Astra 400 (wish I still had it, got stolen around 1990). I went everywhere looking for ammo, finally found some at a now-gone gunstore in NW OKC. They had several 25-round boxes of surplus ammo, 1950s Spanish, IIRC. I purchased all they had. I shot up most of it, then the pistol was stolen. The ammo fired fine, no FTF or FTE, at least that I remember. I don't remember anything about accuracy, but I drank heavily back then.... Fast forward these many years, it's still in the safe. It needs to go away. No box, headstamp is mostly illegible, but looks like F N T. Or, maybe it's not, hard to tell. Ammo has some spots on the brass, some of which can be scrapped off with my thumbnail (no, my thumbnail does not come along with the ammo. Get your own.). I can see no reason this ammo wouldn't be perfectly safe to fire. who wants it ? FTF only, I'm in between Edmond & Guthrie. We can meet somewhere. Or, you can bring your Astra or Star Model B here, and shoot this out behind my barn. Maybe we can negotiate for the Model B. I'll be out-of-pocket starting about 10am today until about 5-ish this evening. [/QUOTE]
