Has anyone ever come across the late Underwood Round Bolts WITH the gas escape hole in a bundled wrap?
I'm trying to find information about the Contract and Production dates.
Thx..

YUP!!!
Come on Bruce, what kind of answer is Yup? Elaborate.
Me Too! Mine's bare, and the wrap looks similar to these Riverbank has for $289.00 each. - BobQuote:

Charlie, I don't think the 1948 contract bolts has the holes in the bottom BUT the later Korean War contract bolts do have the holes. At least the ones I have seen do. 1851 time frame if I remember right.
As to why the prices? GREED!!!!!! WW2 bolts 7 years ago were not that expensive at $79 each.
Mine in the wrap also is complete, not stripped. Were all in that contract complete bolts? Just curious. And I am just assuming that mine came from the bundle of 3 that you commonly see
I know they came in much larger bundles, but I seem to remember seeing quiet a few sellers on eBay having boxes of 3 with the same info on the label as the box of 10 in the post above.
