Hello Everybody,
Here I show you a picture of a New Primed Empty 12ga shotshell which I have in my collection.
It has been made by MGM from France,but clearly for export. But to which country?
And what does the writing mean and what language is it?
When more pictures are needed please ask.
Many thanks René
I am always looking for collectable shotshells, have all required permits and would be very happy to get a PM when you can help me.
Many thanks René

Hi René,
Could you please post a few more pictures of the cartridge?It does look like it's meant for an East Asian country.

Vikram

The question is why have they copied Mr. Grewal's avatar ? Your comments are needed Prabhdeep.

Oh ho Here is a perfect example of Intellectual Property Right infringement case. Let me know which company is producing these shot shells so that I can sue them. Doc you will be my prime witness , And in-case we succeed in getting some compensation , we will share the booty.

Sure Prabhdeep, may I suggest we ask for "liquid" compensation ?

Hello Shooter,
I would be very happy if I get a translation, even when it takes more than a few days.
Thanks Already
