I ordered two cases from the Armory yesterday, or rather four spam cans with openers as they were sold out of the cases, I don't need any more wood boxes anyway. They will be here on Friday, I forgot to order 100 loose rounds to test fire, ordered them last night and they will be here on Monday. Fast service. If the stuff works well I will order another five or six spam cans in the next few months.

I got two cans in today, from Copes. One is pretty rusty and I'll open that one and transfer the ammo into a 50cal ammo can. The other can, as far as I can tell, is in perfect shape. Typical Copes, going the extra mile for EVERY customer. This is why I continue to do business with them. Top notch all the way! Thanks Roger!

I personally own four vehicles, three are antiques and the other is my RV. There are accessory collectors, and now you are one :) I have ten East German AK cleaning kits someplace, I only wanted one, but that's how they were being sold, don't remember what I did with the other nine.
