Description

This lot consists of 100 rounds of 7.62x39mm rifle ammunition manufactured by Sellier & Bellot. The ammunition is divided into five folding cardboard boxes, each containing 20 cartridges. The packaging features an olive green and tan color scheme with a printed rampant lion crest and the Sellier & Bellot logo. The side panels are marked “Sellier & Bellot,” “7,62×39,” and “FMJ,” further specifying a “124grs 8.0g” bullet weight. The packaging identifies the load as “BULLET No. 2907” with the product code “#SB76239A.” The cartridges are constructed with brass casings and full metal jacket (FMJ) projectiles. Each casing bears a headstamp reading “S&B,” “7.62×39,” and the number “21.” The interior of one box lid features a black ink stamp reading “6 / 0 / 94.” Sellier & Bellot is a long-standing Czech ammunition manufacturer, and the packaging style is consistent with their modern tactical ammunition line.


Condition report:

The ammunition and packaging show signs of shelf wear and age. The cardboard boxes exhibit surface abrasions, white scuffing to the green printed areas, and mild crushing or rounding at the corners (photo 1). Some boxes show light staining or discoloration to the tan cardboard surfaces (photo 2). One box shows a small area of surface loss on the front face near the rampant lion logo (photo 1). The interior plastic spacers and the cartridges themselves appear in good condition with no significant corrosion visible on the brass casings or projectiles (photo 3).
