When I read his offer "5 30mm PGU-13 A/B rounds" I thought <b>what the hell!</b> but if you look at the pictures you can see how he's doing it. http://cgi.ebay.com/franklin-mint-a-10- ... dZViewItem He is a good salesman I guess. Ugly But Well Hung |

No projectiles. Interesting, I guess the unsuspecting buyer may be caught unaware and get stuck with 30MM casings. At least he has the LTC's (Linked Tube Carriers). Fender "A woman drove me to drink and I hadn't even the courtesy to thank her". W.C. Fields |

Dice I agree and the thing about combat is there is really no way to prove they were used in combat. I have some I collected from DS1. I loaded the rounds and downloaded the brass however I cant prove it. Fender "A woman drove me to drink and I hadn't even the courtesy to thank her". W.C. Fields |

Unless someone does forensics on the dust on the one Raven gave me at Bagram, I can't prove my claim, either.

Fortunately during OEF they required us to obtain a letter stating that our 30MM rounds where not "War Trophies". So at least I have some form of documentation establishing the time frame and location that they where used. Thankfully I didn't discard this letter, instead for some reason, I rolled it up and placed it inside one of the casings. It wasn't until almost a year afterwards while taking pictures of the rounds to post about the different colors that I discovered the letter tucked away. Wish I would have been as lucky with the casings I collected from the AC-130 during Just Cause. BTW Dice, did you ever find any info out on the "Red" Shell cases we talked about some time ago? capche-capche da - we go forward together Faugh ah Ballaugh -Clear The Way- |

Hitler, I can't remember if they were a test lot or a lot of tracers, let me see if I keep anything on that.... Ugly But Well Hung |
