    Just picked this up today while snooping around in Calgary. Looks like a total of 90(quick count) linked live practice rounds. All made by IVI - Industries Valcartier Industies and post 1977 dated. Price was right so I snapped it up.

    Nice find Dale, makes for a good display!
    All I found today was 3 general service pins from WWII.

    That is a nice find. If a guy could get access to the training area in Wainwright there is tons of that type of stuff just laying around in the fields and wooded areas. Of course it's illegal to remove this type of stuff from the training area/ranges but if it wasn't it would be an awesome place to spend weekends searching for "treasure".

    Guess I should have displayed it a bit better than the pic shows....my man cave is still obstructed by "things" I had to stash in there for the Christmas festivities. I had to reach to get these to hang on the compass pouch. Better than my dirty old work clothes in the background I suppose.

    No doubt! I've driven through there numerous times and often wondered what was lurking beyond all that scrub brush.
