>>61587690I had an old box of Norma 6.5 jap. Love the style of those older Norma boxes, more ammo boxes should have faux wood or at least make an attempt to look a bit classy. That or go the ammo inc route of peak minimalism
>>61587728>the US Army could have adopted a Mauer rifle in a rim-less 7.62x53mm cartridge in 1892But nooo, we can't load our rifles TOO fast or our guys will shoot up all the ammo but we have to be able to re-load our rifles while keeping one in the chamber in case da Injuns get close.
>>61587690I inherited a sporterized Argie carbine and half a box of ammo from my grandpa's family. It's a very slick little hunting rifle but I'm not set up to reload 7.65 so it's just sitting idle for now.
>>61590104Was it Norma ammo? Did your gramps live in north Alabama? I might’ve traded him that gun for a pre model 10 a few years ago kek
