Here`s a couple of real oldies found in the woods,can`t read the HS`s on them but they are .45-75 Win.

Hey Pete, do you suppose these are likely from a lever action rifle.........?

Hi Steve,the only two rifles I could find in this caliber are both lever action,1876 Win. and the Kennedy Repeating Rifle.The NWMP in Canada used the 1876 Win. for a few years.....Pete.

Hi Thanos,going by his lofty perch I guess you could say he is a person of " high caliber "...Best regards,Pete.

Here`s some Italian steel-cased 6.5 ammo,does anyone know the maker of the clip? It`s marked M.U.G. on left and 942 on right,which is the year 1942...Pete.

A quick search in the web resulted in photos but no id of stamp M.U.G.
Perhaps another Forum member can enlighten us...
What is the hstamp on the ctgs ?
Best regards, Thanos.

Hi,the HS is BPD over 942, I did some searching too,seems to be unknown...Pete.

I presume you mean M.U.G. is unknown and not BPD, Bombrini Parodi, Delfino?

MUG is one of several unknown Italian clip producers. It appears for the mid war years and is also found on Breda 20mm strips.
