How many collect older ammo boxes

204targetman
I keep buying these things, its like a sickness. Love the ones that still have the ammo in them. But like the old cardboard for some reason.

    I have old shotgun shells and their boxes.
    GB'ers can pick 'em up for free or meet within 45 mi of 08753

    Just can't bring myself to throw 'em out.

    Oh yeah, been doing it a while. Here are a couple of photo's I snapped showing just a bit of the madness. I've got another cabinet of just .22 boxes. Some are full but not many.

    I used to collect/hoard CD cardboard long boxes before they went away. Turns out they are worthless,[8] but old ammo boxes have been good to me. Sold a bit for some folding money.[:)]

    I have one old .44-40 box, that is not a collection and not the start of another collection either. Just so nice I could not recycle it.

    Moving some stuff around today and ran across some old 22 boxes of ammo.
    Ammo still in them.
    Have to check out the auction side now.

    I have a few partial boxes of old ammo, not really a collection per se.

    Older lady I knew gave me four boxes of old shotgun shells many years ago. All of them are full. Kinda got me started. Ive been picking them up here and there ever since. I probably have 30. Mostly empty, but every now and then you get some that still have ammo in them.

    I have a few old shotgun boxes, full of cardboard shells and brass shells. I mostly have antique rifle boxes that are full. My dads friend gave them to me. I think they are cool looking and I displayed them in a glass cabinet.

    My brother got some, two pallet loads and a fork lift to load them on a 3/4 ton truck from an older guy. All FULL and now he will go through them. Just from looking at some, they are older and then very old boxes of so many things.[:p] Granted the guy wanted cash and he got a load of that but gosh that's a lot of ammo.![:)]
