Whenever I get a text it's about a medical appointment.

I need my head examined is more like it.
We did shoot some clays today and I didn't have much 12 or 20 I wanted to use.
Problem solved

Never heard of the Ajax and Climax brands.
If you need a home for some empty boxes I could be persuaded to provide one.

I'm pretty sure I could do that.
I actually found someone that wanted these before I tossed them.

I scavenged this from the trash for you.
410 boxes are the best.
I can probably consolidate and get you several more soon.

I’ve never purchased anything from this auction. I’ve looked at their site several times in the past few years. But they have apparently been in business at least 10 yrs. Idk if you’re interested in selling any of your old ammo or not.

Yeah, those are for selling, not shooting, maybe just a little, but those boxes are in good shape

It all came from a store that closed about a decade ago.

Cool stuff! Probably a pain but I’m sure that is all sellable on GB or EB.

Yeah too much of a PITA for me.
I did bundle the S&W papers and sold them already.
Probably do the same with the winchester colt ruger and browning
May have a Colorado box too.....lol

The Wildey paperwork can’t be very common

Probably not but also not worth trying to find the guy that would want it.
There was other stuff I liked
Old hang tags
Now those are cool....lol

If you bump into any paperwork for a Colt Huntsman please let me know. I have the original box for mine but none of the literature.

Wish I had it for you.
No problem, you've hooked me up with more stuff over the years that I can even remember. I will, if it's still available, trouble you for one of the Winchester 88 pamphlets in the picture. I have a pre-64 that would love to be reunited with one of those. Oh and I found something I got for you a LONT time ago, like 4 moves ago. Found it/bought it in an antique store, lost it into moving boxes and just saw light of day. I need to get t in the mail this week.
