SOLD.

Priced lowered to $100.00.

I would like to sell a mostly full box of Winchester .44 – 40 cartridges that is incorrectly marked for use in Winchester Models 73, 93 and 53 Rifles.

Please click on this link to view the discussion of this box: Box of Winchester .44-40 Ammo Marked for Models: 73, 93 and 53. Model 93? | General Discussions & Questions | Forum | Winchester CollectorWinchester Collector

There are 44 unfired cartridges and 4 empties in this box.  Box is in very good condition with both end flaps intact but one corner of the box has separated.  See photos below.

Priced at $125  $100.00 plus actual shipping cost.

Please ask if you have any questions.

Tim,

I followed Mike Hager’s instructions, and it worked fine.  Thanks Mike.

The Direct Upload Method. (Available to WACA members only)

At the bottom of the post editing window is an Upload Attachments button.  Select it and an area to drag images appears.  You can directly drag an image or multiple images from your computer to this window. Select the Start Upload button and the image will appear in your post.

Considerations:  Images are currently limited to 3 megabytes in size.  They will only display in the original full size, so sizing may be necessary before you upload them.  Images will appear in the post at the location of the cursor, so if you are posting information about individual images, it might be easier to type your information, then post that picture, then move to the next, or type in all of your descriptions, place the cursor at the desired location for the first image then upload it, and repeat fro subsequent images.  You’ll get the hang of it pretty fast.

The instructions you mention are out of date (and I have deleted that post).

The box is marked: “WINCHESTER REPEATING ARMS COMPANY / DIVISION OF WESTERN CARTRIDGE COMPANY”

That marking was used from December 31, 1938 until December 30, 1944.

So these cartridges were made from about 1939 to 1944.
