Description: *NOTE TO EBAY - THESE BOXES ARE EMPTY AND DO NOT CONTAIN ANY RESTRICTED AMMUNITION COMPONENTS*Up for your consideration is a set of two empty reproduction CALIBER .30 M1 BALL 1940 NATIONAL MATCHES (IN CLIPS) 20 round ammunition cartons with a FRANKFORD ARSENAL label. The .30-06 cartridge, first developed in 1906, was the official U.S. rifle and light machine gun cartridge in both World Wars and Korea, with combat use finally ending in the 1960s. From WWI until WWII, National Match ammunition was selected by competitive firing of Frankford Arsenal service lots as well as commercial lots submitted under contract, with most submitted lots containing from 1-2 million rounds. The lots selected were sent to the location of the matches, the rest went into service stores. This process educated the commercial manufacturers with the techniques of making the service cartridge, which would come in handy when they needed to produce cartridges for any future wars. It also helped build up the supply of service ammunition at minimal cost to the government. The 1940 National Matches were the last to use the M1 Ball cartridge in competitive shooting.Each "Buy It Now" single purchase is for 2 unassembled cartons with dividers and labels. The Frankford Arsenal label has the unique Ordnance Dept. red stripe, which identified the contents as ball ammunition, and a National Matches label and lot number matching an original. The cartons, dividers, and labels will be shipped flat, with assembly instructions. I had a lot of these made, so if you want multiple sets, just change the auction quantity before you click the "Buy It Now" button.Check my feedback and buy with confidence. I prefer paypal, and shipping is free to U.S. buyers. I will ship world-wide, with the buyer paying all shipping charges. Those charges will be added by eBay during the checkout process.
