Condition report:
The cardboard bulk packaging shows significant signs of age and handling, including creasing, crushing at the corners, and frayed edges. There are surface abrasions and some staining visible on the exterior. The box remains closed, though the structural integrity of the cardboard is softened from use. The cartridges, viewed through the lens of bulk packaging, appear to be live; however, individual rounds have not been inspected for corrosion or seated depth.
