⚠️ Safety Reminder for Buyers and Sellers ⚠️

This is an automatic reply meant to protect you as a buyer and a seller on TGO.

  • Use the Buyer/Seller Feedback feature to research who you are dealing with.   Please come back and leave feedback for each other after the transaction is complete.  Your experience will help others.
     
  • Never agree to use an electronic form of payment to buy or sell a gun!  None of the electronic payment services will protect you against fraud in a firearms transaction.  They all have terms of service FORBIDDING the use of their services to buy/sell guns.  DON'T DO IT.
     
  • Be very wary of anyone who insists on brokering a deal in private or outside of TGO.  Scammers almost always prefer to operate out of the public eye.

Learn me something... Why does the box say 7.62x59?

I really don’t know why it’s marked like that.🤔

It actually say "7.62 - 59' with 59 indicating the bullet type.  The Czechs called steel core light ball Type 59.

If I'm deciphering the rest of it correctly it was made by Sellier & Bellot in 1963.

It's good stuff.

Thanks for sharing! I felt there was a "learn something new" opportunity, so thanks for obliging me.

Since you asked, not that I don't "need" it, my PSL would make good use of it. Just that it's corrosive and not to offend you, current prices of ammo keeps me reloading instead of buying surplus. Not that you aren't fair, you are for the current market, I just think the current market is way too high. I can reload cheaper than .50 cents each and get petter performance and not have to worry about corrosion.
