Condition report:
The propellant pellets appear to be in good condition, maintaining their cylindrical shape with no significant signs of moisture damage, discoloration, or crumbling. The black plastic storage cases show minor external scuffing and shelf wear consistent with previous use. One label has a handwritten ink notation. As these are opened containers of chemical propellant, we have not tested the chemical stability, moisture content, or ignition reliability of the contents.
