Description
This lot consists of a collection of 100 rounds of Norinco Chinasports brand .223 Remington caliber ammunition. The ammunition is organized into five individual 20-round boxes. Technical specifications indicated on the packaging specify a 55-grain Full Metal Jacket (FMJ) projectile. The cartridges utilize Boxer-primed brass cases, which the manufacturer identifies as non-corrosive and reloadable. The distinctive red and black packaging bears the “NORINCO” and “CHINASPORTS” trademarks. Transcribed markings on the primary box include “.223 REM,” “20 CARTRIDGES,” and specific loading details: “BOXER PRIMED • BRASS CASE • NON-CORROSIVE • RELOADABLE.” This ammunition was produced by China North Industries Corporation (Norinco) and imported for the commercial sporting market.
Condition report:
The ammunition appears to be in good, original condition with clean brass cases and no visible signs of corrosion or oxidation. The factory cardboard boxes show minor shelf wear, including small dings and softening at the corners and edges, but remain structurally sound and retain bright color and legible text. The ammunition appears to be live; however, mechanical function and performance are not guaranteed.
