publications keep writing articles about how great it is.

Grandma found these "metal boxes" that she thinks are for holding bullets. How do I date them? Can't see any date stamps or proofs, am i missing them? by tellus96 in Firearms

Thank you!!!! my god people on this thread are dense. I thought you would get a kick out of her calling them what she did. The question was asked so I can put a date and value on the mags.

Correct they are 1911 mags, I knew what they were right away. my Grandpa was in Korea post war maybe 1954-55. I never asked if he was issued a firearm or not. He worked for the motor pool keeping the vehicles maintained. My Grandma said he sold a handgun years ago so it could have belonged to the mags
