Description
This lot consists of a group of 69 vintage 12-gauge shotgun shells manufactured by Remington, presented in three original Remington Express cardboard boxes.

The packaging features the iconic green and yellow “Kleanbore” priming and “Power Piston” branding. Visible headstamps include “Remington Express” and “Peters,” reflecting the common branding for this era of production. The boxes include period details such as handwritten price notations of $3.30 and $2.25. Note – All ammunition is sold as collector’s items only and is not guaranteed for use in firearms. All firearms require a federal 4473 background check.
Condition report:
The ammunition and packaging show significant signs of age and handling consistent with vintage sporting goods. The cardboard boxes exhibit edge wear, creasing, scuffing, and torn or missing flaps. Several shells show visible oxidation, tarnish, and surface corrosion on the metal heads. The plastic hulls appear structurally sound but show varied degrees of surface wear and fading. One box is noted as being taped at the bottom. The shells appear live but have not been function-tested.
