muggs Posted September 7, 2006 Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 I was cleaning out my Grandpa's basement and came across some really old shotgun shells. I'm not sure how old they are, but I'm guessing at least 30-40 years. Not sure how to properly, and safely dispose of them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clayman Posted September 7, 2006 Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 Re: what to do with old shells? Are they still in the original boxes? The boxes may have some collectible value. Your local law enforcement agency may have an outlet, or advice, for disposal of any ammo you wish to discard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ Posted September 7, 2006 Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 Re: what to do with old shells? Shoot them! I have some ammo that is older than that and it will work just fine. As long as its not been exposed to wet conditions and is corroded, its fine to shoot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
