Description

This lot comprises 100 rounds of .38/40 Winchester ammunition by Precision Cartridge Inc. The ammunition is presented in two black cardboard boxes, each marked “PRECISION CARTRIDGE INC.” on the front with a stylized image of a handgun and ammunition box, and a warning “Keep Out Of Reach Of Children.” A yellow label on the side of each box identifies the contents as “38/40 Winchester,” “180 GR RN/FP LEAD,” and “NEW AMMUNITION.” Approximately 50 brass-cased cartridges with lead bullets are arranged in a white plastic tray, either within one box or displayed separately. The cartridge bases are marked “38-40.”


Condition report:

The cardboard boxes exhibit moderate surface wear, scuffing, and some discoloration. The ammunition itself appears to be in new, unused condition with bright brass casings and intact lead bullets.
