- WW2 Japanese Type 92 7.7mm Loaded Feed Strips In Original Boxes - $200

This lot includes two WW2 dated Japanese Type 92 feed strips each containing 30 rounds of 7.7mm ammunition. Each package bears the Japanese production date of 15.1 which corresponds to January of 1941. The unopened box still bears both the original paper seal along with the data tag on the side. The opened box is missing its paper seal but still retains its data tag as shown. Condition is very fine as shown. These feed strips were made for the Type 92 heavy machine gun which utilized a French Hotchkiss style feed system. The 92 was a robust and reliable weapons platform and was known as the “woodpecker” for its distinct cyclic rate. These are scarce items and are tough to find these days. Detailed photos are linked in the album below.

- 1920s Peters .45 Colt Auto CF (ACP), 2 boxes - $140

This lot is a pair of vintage Peters .45 Colt Auto CF (ACP) 50 round boxes. The packaging is in fair condition with the first of the boxes being the nicest. The labels look great and the boxes themselves are firm. The labels state that the ammunition is specially adapted for function in Colt pistols and Thompson sub guns, super cool. I have not counted the individual rounds but each box appears full.
