EDITED in last post. Nice deal at local gun show today
42 GI clips in an ammo can for $85. Older gentleman had sold his last Garand a year ago and was looking to move things out. No rust or damage on any off them.

Nice find, we assume you have a Garand to go with them? Or you could make a wind chime just to enjoy the ping sound.

A Garand is still on my wish list. I need to get on that.

Wind chime??? That sounds like a shop class project. LOL.
Do you ever really own a gun when your kids like to shoot?
And yes, everyone should have at least one Garand.

Look close at their markings and search on line to see the manufacturers who made them. It's interesting to learn and some may be worth a little more than others.

So my son miscounted, it’s 42. Here is a breakdown of the types of clips with a Gemini analysis FWIW.

Your analysis image is too small to make out. It's only 320x279 pixels.
Even if you zoom in on your browser/phone, the image is too pixelated to read most of it due to its tiny resolution.
