My son's collection

[grmroper001]

Howdy all,
My son and has started a collection of loaded rounds. We have a dozen or so already but would like to ask all of you if you would be willing to donate some that I don't already have. I am not sure if their are laws prohibiting such shippments but I figured that I would ask anyway. We are looking for rounds from the completely obscure to the totally obvious rifle, pistol and shotgun. If anyone could possibly help I would deeply appeciate it. Because of his interest in this I would happily pay shipping. I would really like to see my boy follow thru with this. The plan is for my son and I to build a pretty awesome glass front cabinet to display them. A list of the ones that we do have is below. FYI dummy rounds (no powder or primer) would be prefered.

Thanks to one and all in advance for any and all help.

17 hmr
22 long rifle
38 special
357 mag
204 ruger
223 win
243 win
260 rem
308 win
6.5x55
270
7 rem mag
45 acp
40 mm pistol
30-06
500 s&w
20 ga shotshell
12ga shotshell

Re: My son's collection

I used to do this same thing when i was a kid. I wish i had a site like this willing to donate to the cause. Instead i had to wait from handouts from guys at the range and the RO's haha.

I'd love to send something but seems like everybody else has the bases covered, i dont really shoot anything rare. If i come across something ill send it your way though

45-70
44 Mag
32 Rem

303 Brit
30-30
30 Rem
32-40
30 carbine
