U.S. Garand Ammo

[Stinkpotpete]

Just the way the top and bottom are scooped like that, it almost looks like a loading sled for firing single rounds. Part of the course of fire here is 20 rounds prone, slow fire. This would make it easier to load them...hmm, I wonder. I have to check now lol

Let me know how it turns out...
Seeing that you served in the US Army in the same period as me (in the Hellenic Army), what type were the sidearms ; the M9 or the fabled .45 ? I was issued a M1911A1 COLT that probably still serves...
Take care, Thanos.
