    Another odd ball from "the shed" tm

    We have never been able to figure this box out. Even some of the ammo specialists and collectors are scratching the bald spot over this one.
    33 rounds ???????
    Second photo is off the shipping crate of Long Branch rifles.....including, breech cover, bayonet and scabbard and frogs. I'll try and get a better photo of the contents label, but just no way to get it right now.
