Gun Collectors Dream Auction #88 December 5th & 6th
Lot 1195:
Description
This lot consists of a verified count of 413 rounds of .300 AAC Blackout centerfire rifle ammunition. The cartridges feature brass casings and primarily copper-jacketed projectiles, including one round notably configured with a red polymer tip. The brass cases exhibit visible heat-treat discoloration around the neck and shoulder areas, which is characteristic of the annealing process used during manufacturing. The ammunition is loose-packed for storage within a standard military-style olive drab metal ammunition can featuring a folding carry handle and a latching lid. Headstamp markings are present on the base of the cartridges but are not clearly legible in the available photographs to identify specific manufacturers. The 300 Blackout cartridge, developed by Advanced Armament Corporation (AAC), is designed for use in the AR-15 platform and is commonly utilized in both supersonic and subsonic configurations for hunting and sporting applications. Note – All firearms require a federal 4473 background check.
Condition report:
The ammunition appears to be in good, usable condition with clean brass casings and intact primers. Some cartridges show minor surface tarnishing and visible annealing marks near the necks. The metal storage can shows external surface wear including scratches, paint loss, and minor oxidation on the lid and handle, but remains structurally sound with a functional latch. The ammunition is sold as live rounds; mechanical function in a specific firearm has not been tested.
