7,63 mm Mauser C 96 ammo

[Felix]

Hello gentlemen!

I was at the military and gun show in Oslo, Norway last saturday and these are my finds.

Early 7,63 mm Mauser C96 ammo is not so common. I saw one of these boxes opened and the ammo are on 10 round chargers.
The boxes which are factory sealed and not opened are in superb condition because they have been wrapped in brown paper for many years.

I had to buy two of these boxes for my collection.

Cheers,
Felix

Felix,

Very nice addition to your ollection. Old ammo and its boxes are very desirable and always display nice with the guns.

You did nice. Congratulations!

Douglas.

Thanks Douglas!

Anyone got any clue what they could be worth?

I payed USD 30 each for them.

Cheers and thanks

Is the Luger loading tool marked?

[Felix]

No, it is not marked. But its been taken from a holster where it has been for a long time and I would say original but not marked.

Cheers,

Probably most of the original unmarked tools are WWI DWM. DWM did not adhere to all of the Army directive outlining the marking of the P.08 and tools.
