Hey All,
I picked up a box of pre-WWII (1939 or 40 dated) French 7.5mm ammo at a show. Grabbed it up since I have never seen a pre-war box of original French 7.5 anywhere. I was just wondering how scarce an item it might be...
I will get some pics up later, I think its just regular ball, plain bullets, yellow diagonal stripe across label....
Too bad I sold off my 1939 MAS 36.....
I also lucked into a packet of WWI 8mm Lebel ammo which is pretty neat a while back. Would be perfect to shoot in my non Balle N Berthier...but I'd never open it!
Wartime packaged French ammo doesn't seem common, at least around here...
