Gun Collectors Dream Auction #88 December 5th & 6th
Lot 472:
Description
This lot consists of a verified count of 200 rounds of 5.56x45mm NATO ammunition. These centerfire rifle cartridges are configured with brass casings and copper-jacketed full metal jacket (FMJ) projectiles, consistent with the M193 55-grain specification commonly utilized for target practice and general sporting applications. The brass cases exhibit visible annealing marks on the case necks and shoulders, a standard characteristic of the manufacturing process for military-grade rifle ammunition to ensure case durability and proper sealing. While individual headstamps are not distinctly legible in the provided photographs, the primers show evidence of circular crimping. The ammunition is presented loose in a white plastic storage container and does not include original retail packaging or manufacturer documentation. Note – All firearms require a federal 4473 background check.
Condition report:
The ammunition is in overall good condition. The brass casings show varying degrees of surface oxidation, tarnish, and light handling marks consistent with bulk storage. The copper-jacketed projectiles appear clean with no major corrosion noted. The primers are intact and appear live; however, as with all surplus or bulk ammunition, we have not function-tested these rounds.
