MEC 600 JR. Mark V Single Stage Shotshell Reloading Press
Sold for: $80
Description
This is a single MEC (Mayville Engineering Company) Model 600 JR. Mark V shotshell reloading press. This unit is a manually operated single-stage press designed for reloading shotgun shells, featuring a heavy cast iron base and support column. The press utilizes a linkage mechanism and a long operating lever topped with a red polymer grip. The unit is equipped with a multi-station head, including dies and loading components necessary for the reloading process.Visible markings transcribed from the baseplate include: 600 JR. MARK V, mec, and PATENT NO. 4,098,899.
Condition: The press is in used condition consistent with heavy use in a reloading environment. The cast iron base and column retain a weathered red paint finish, showing significant chipping, scratches, dirt, and powder residue throughout. The black finish on the linkage mechanism is largely intact but shows wear at pivot points. Multiple bright-finished steel ram tubes and internal components exhibit staining, residue buildup, and minor surface corrosion, particularly on the lower portions. The red polymer grip is intact. The mechanism appears to function correctly when manually cycled, though we have not function-tested this press with actual components. It is the buyer’s responsibility to ensure compliance with all local, state, and federal firearms laws.
