Hoping someone in the D/FW area can help me out.
My father and his younger brother both served in Vietnam. Brother brought back a fully-loaded M16 20 round magazine. Years later, brother died in a car accident and magazine ended up in my father's possession. Now, magazine obviously has sentimental value (both of service in Vietnam and of his brother), however I don't like the safety implications of 40 year old ammo.
What I'm hoping for is that some reloader can pull the bullets, dump the powder, do something with the primer and reseat the bullets (hopefully all without damaging anything). I don't know if this is possible, or if there's a better solution. But, I'm looking for a long-term solution (this'll become a family heirloom and I don't want some family member wondering what to do with 100 year old ammo, etc.).
Any suggestions or help is greatly appreciated. Thanks...
