    I qualified as late as 1984 with Western Super Match .38 Special in the Arm. Waste of match ammo IMO but that's what we were issued and the cases reloaded quite well./beagle

    Some is less than 100 rounds, High Standard HD Military's and Nylon 66's with mufflers on them were the delivery device. If you want one for your collection I will give you one, you pay the shipping
