Description: *NOTE TO EBAY - THESE BOXES ARE EMPTY AND DO NOT CONTAIN ANY RESTRICTED AMMUNITION COMPONENTS*Up for your consideration is a two-piece set of empty replica WWII 10 ROUND MILITARY CONTRACT SHOTGUN SHELL BOXES with a WINCHESTER REPEATING ARMS (WRA) 00 Buck combat load label.All shotgun ammunition was initially delivered to the government in 25 round cartons, exactly as sold in the civilian market, but with a "US Property" stamp on the box. Later, the shells began to be packed at the plant in military-contract 10 round boxes, probably for ease in issue in the field, and for long-term storage in spam cans. The 00 Buck loading with paper shells was procured by the Ordnance Department for Riot, Guard, and Combat use. By late 1944, all-brass 00 buckshot shells began replacing the paper-cased combat rounds that were becoming unusable in the damp climates of Alaska and the Pacific. Finally in early 1945, the Remington-produced M19 all-brass 00 buckshot shell became the primary authorized shotgun combat round, and was subsequently issued well into the Vietnam War period, when they were eventually replaced with a plastic-cased round. Each "Buy It Now" single purchase is for two unassembled cartons with a Winchester Repeating Arms 00 Buck Paper Shells label. The lot numbers are hand stamped on the labels prior to shipping, either matching my original boxes, or if you prefer, I can match the lot number of a spam can or crate that you may have. The cartons will be shipped flat, with assembly instructions. I had a lot of these made, so if you want multiple sets, just change the auction quantity before you click on the "Buy It Now" button. Check my feedback and buy with confidence. I prefer paypal, and payment is expected within 3 days of purchase. Shipping to US addresses is free. I will ship internationally, but there will be extra shipping charges involved, and they will be added by eBay during the checkout process. If you have a lot number preference, please send details to me on the eBay checkout page. Be sure to check out all my replicas. Just click on my store link at the bottom of this listing. Thanks for your interest and support.
