The next four photos are of the collection about eight months ago before reorganisation and shows a bit more of which is now waiting for a larger cabinet.

Sorry about the paint job but it is as near to its original as I could get-item is beach recovered and 99% straight !
 
Bigger cabinet needed again! Think it's time to build a purpose built one.:tinysmile_shy_t: and buy a decent camera...

Nice one !

Very nice indeed Charlie.
The camera is fine as those pics came out loud and clear with good detail.

That is a very comprehensive collection.
 
That's what I call a beautifull collection!!
Thanks for posting these very interesting pics.
Do you collect Rarden ammo only?

Regards , DJH

@ Spotter : they look like a set of "Go / no go" gauges, also called accept/reject gauges.

Thanks R & DJH. I used to only collect Rarden, but about a month ago decided to collect all 30x170mm ammo. (Got my first Rarden round 09.2004)

There must be 50 odd rounds not shown in the photos only because i really do need another cabinet. Been drawing up some plans today so will see how my woodwork skils are next week lol.
