Gun Collectors Dream Auction #88 December 5th & 6th
Lot 214:
Description
This lot consists of two sealed 50-round bags of centerfire handgun ammunition, comprising a verified total of 100 rounds. The cartridges are chambered in .45 Auto Rim and feature 230-grain lead round-nose (LRN) projectiles seated in rimmed brass cases. The identification labels from Georgia Arms include the manufacturer name, phone number 770-459-5117, catalog code G45ARA, and technical specifications noting a muzzle velocity of 780 FPS. Visible headstamps are marked G.A. 45 AUTO RIM, confirming the manufacturer and caliber. The reverse of each bag features red-inked safety warnings and instructions for use in modern firearms. This ammunition was designed as a rimmed alternative to the .45 ACP, specifically for use in revolvers such as the M1917 without the requirement of half-moon or full-moon clips.
Condition report:
The ammunition is in new condition as packaged in original sealed plastic bags. The brass cases are bright and free of corrosion or significant tarnish. The lead projectiles appear clean and properly seated. The plastic packaging is intact with clear, legible labeling, though some minor storage wear is present on the exterior of the bags. The ammunition appears live and functional, though mechanical performance has not been independently verified.
