Is there a market for vintage 22 LR Ammo in Pa? or should i just let the kids have at it.
How vintage is it? I have seen boxes of some older 22 ammo protected by plastic wrap and for sale at some shows. The Forks show coming up at Allentown is one of those. There is a cartridge collectors show held each year not too far from you where these would also be of interest.
This year I seem to remember it was at the Reinholds fire hall. See this post: http://forum.pafoa.org/showthread.php?t=349302
May want to PM that OP as he is apparently part of the organization and can tell you more.
Vintage anything most always has value to the right person or group.Quote:

The keywords to make those rounds more valuable is to add the words "Rare, Collector and Vintage" in any order and don't forget to add "as seen on American Pickers".
Hell I am almost 69,does that make me vintage and collectible,?
Yes and yes, you're probably more competent and reliable than any of the younger workers out there today.Quote:
