Is it still useful ? Can you use it in a PX Storm 9mm?

 

It was with my Grandpa's Luger 9mm that he brought back from WWII. The brand is Peter's which looks like it was a Dupont company. It says " Peter's Packs More Power!" lol anyway , it is "full metal case" 124 grain centerfire. I don't have the boxes here , but will next week.

I bet it would still fire, but if it's still in the original boxes it probably has some worth as an antique/memorabilia.

Do not use it! Give it to me and I will dispose of it for you.

Oh cool , just read up on that plant. Stopped making ammo in 1944 ..it is supposedly haunted :)

 

I guess I'll just put it on display on my shelf next to the 150 rounds of .32 rimfire for the Steven's Long that I have.

I recently shot an IDPA match where a guy was using WWII-era Ohlins ammo. He had a jam on pretty much every string.

lol he also has old S&W ammo. Well , in any event , the Peters Ammunition will look cool on our shelf..there is about 150 rounds of it.

Peter Luger's ammo? I thought they just made sauce.

It's ammo...delicious finger licking good ammo

Good to the last drop lol

 

I wish I had the gun. I was suppose to get the gun . If you have multiple kids and Grandkids..always be very specific and put everything in your will :/

Back in the early 1970's my dad purchased a TON of .30-30. I still shoot that ammo 40 years later (I just used up the 40 year old .22LR & shorts last year). If it looks good, it is good.

Ammo from '44 might be corrosive-primed. Check the boxes to see if it's marked "Non-Corrosive" as that was a major selling point. Always treat WWII ammo as corrosive and clean the gun thoroughly after using.

Lugers usually will only feed reliably with 124gr or larger ammo. If it is old it will probably work but could be corrosive.

If you find any .41 Long Colt / .41 Colt ammo and you want to part with it, let me know.

Peter Luger's ammo? I thought they just made steaks that i'll never be able to afford.

 

fixified

I have a lot of old Peters cardboard shotgun shells! Probably around my age!

Will do..I have been scoping out old guns lately , caught the collection bug. I'll keep that in the back of my mind for you , and grab it if I see any
