Date ammo boxes

[4011]

Anyone want to guess the age of these boxes. Came with the 1911.

I believe they used those from some time in the 60's to possibly early 70's I have a couple of the same style boxed they are pictured in a 69 Remington Catalog so I know they were in use at that time

I'd agree with the time frame - still viable ammo.

I'd go back another decade. 50's-60's

My SWAG is that the box on the left is from the 50's and the other is from the 60's.

Our swags are similar as the right hand box has the child warning which I think came out in the early 60's.

Cartridge Collectors has a very nice website (cartridgecollectors.org/documents/Remington-Cartridge-Box-Dates.pdf) that traces the chronology of Remington boxes - nice pictures for comparison and all the dates of manufacture.

Fourm is correct again. 50 - 60. Thanks
