Milsurp After Hours

I posted this on another forum,trying to see what'd be worth.

The box isn't quite full,I think I may have a few sitting about that I used,but I believe it was always had about four or so missing (I think)



They're marked "GM V" with two lines over and under the V



I take it they came in the original box.



I doubt I'll use them...well I "tried" to use them and about broke my fingers,so I set them aside and never bothered with them.

I've thrown a many of them away from the old surplus ammo that was cheap and easy come and easy go once upon a time. Looks like the surplus has dried up for a while. I bet you could sell them online for some price that would amaze you.

I suspect as much Niner,I haunt quite a few forums and I'm posting this around to see what it might be worth when I get a few answers I'll compare and see what I get.

Thing is I need some expert to whisper in my ear to help me along,I haven't a clue yet I just bought it at Sportsman's Guide about fifteen years ago.

Krull, I am told the value ranges from .50 each to almost two bucks each.

I've heard that too,what I'd like to do is sell it as a set (I'm sure some collector will go bonkers for such a thing) since it has the original box.

What I need to do now is see how many I have,the box may just be full.

*goes off to hunt up the loose ones*

Well don't count em like the tissues

Collecting chargers is a specialty in itself. While I don't have enough of a handle on it to comment constructively on these I have seen some disparaging comments about the Italian chargers. So I don't know what sort of pricing these may command but I'd hazard a guess the full number in the original packaging will stir some interest. Chargers on their own I'd peg at about $0.50 to $1 each. So around $50 - $100 + a premium for the box, maybe $75 to $125 ? I wouldn't expect the Italian made stuff to fetch top dollar given their reputation.

I'm a saddo, i would just keep them with all my other gun related bits a pieces that never see the light of day.

Joe

I have a bundle of them Iwill just keep them I might even try using a few.

I tried them in a MkIV I had~el nada,but looking back on it I don't recall if I tried them in my MkIII.....oh,well I don't want to I'm going Mosin way and the heck with .303

For the record .303 is ok,but 7.62X54 is more available,plus it uses the same bullet size as 7.62X39 which I have a whoooole lot of so reloading will be easier,just gotta use lighter bullets in the 39.....
