As I am currently under employed, I decided to inventory my 37mm collection today as it has reached its zenith. I was just talked into selling a few items, and I have not added much in the past ten years. Most of these items were accumulated in the 90’s. So, I thought it best to record my accomplishment before it starts getting any smaller. My goal when I started collecting US 37mm ammunition for the WWII tank and antitank guns in 1991 was to assemble the world's finest collection of these items. These were the only items I chose to collect until recently as I shoot with both my M3 and M6 37mm cannons. The silver projectiles on the right are reproduction leaded steel rounds crimped onto cases that are ready to be fired. I only included these to show the cases for the count. Only six projectiles retain their original paint and markings. Much of this is normally stored in the ammunition racks in my M8 armored car – holds 80 rounds.
I count 175 cases (I am including the three I just sold). I thought I had over 200.
