Condition report:
The ammunition and original packaging show signs of age and long-term storage. The cardboard boxes exhibit moderate wear, including edge fraying, minor staining, and surface scuffing. The brass-cased blank cartridges show varying degrees of surface oxidation and tarnish, though the primers appear seated and undisturbed. The blue plastic training cartridges remain in good physical condition with minor scuffs consistent with handling. The metallic bases of the plastic training rounds show light oxidation. The overall condition of the components is consistent with surplus military training material. We have not function-tested this ammunition.
