Gun Collectors Dream Auction #87 General Gun Auction
Lot 1306:
Description
This lot consists of 100 rounds of Russian-manufactured 7.62x39mm caliber ammunition produced under the Golden Tiger brand. The total quantity is divided among five cardboard boxes, with each box containing 20 individual cartridges. These rounds are loaded with 124 grain lead core full metal jacket boat tail projectiles. Technical specifications provided on the packaging indicate the use of lacquered steel cases and non-corrosive priming. A distinctive purple sealant is applied at both the case mouth and the primer pocket to ensure moisture resistance during storage. Verbatim markings on the boxes include 7.62×39 FMJBT, 124 GR, LEAD CORE, STEEL CASE, NON-CORROSIVE, and GOLDEN TIGER CARTRIDGES 20. The packaging features a prominent tiger head logo and a orange and yellow color scheme with a target illustration on the side panels.
Condition report:
The ammunition appears to be in factory-new, live condition. The lacquered steel cases are clean and free of corrosion or oxidation, and the purple moisture sealant remains intact at the case mouths and primers. The cardboard boxes exhibit minor shelf wear including light scuffing at the edges and small dings at the corners, but they remain structurally sound and the printed text is clearly legible.
