Got Christmas Ammo, Only 3 rounds?
My wife is quite into my hobby and knows I always want more ammo.
Imagine my surprise when I opened up some of the boxes under the tree?
I put a WWII 1911 pistol in the picture for size perspective.
The first round is a WWII M11A3 rifle grenade fired from a Garand or 1903 rifle.
The second is a Kinetic Energy Penetrator that is the main projectile in a 105mm sabot anti tank round.
The third item is a WWII 3.5 inch inert bazooka rocket.
Do I have a cool wife or what? The 45 was part of the package as well.

Very cool of your wife. But did you explain to her that none of those will fit into the 1911?

Tigpa,
No, I didn't explain to her that they didn't fit. I just told I still need more ammo.
All you guys are right about having a great wife. I married above my pay grade! I am sure I was not the only one of us who did that.
Thanks,
Smitty
PS, I now know that WWII bazooka shells were 2.36 inches while mine was actually made in 12/55 for the M20 3.5 inch bazooka.

Haha! I was expecting a rant about a liberal wife that thinks you don't need any more ammo, any more guns, etc thus 3 rounds. I think you win on that one.
Well done.

I think I saw a bazooka for sale in Sportsmans Guide.
