Product Description
This inert .30-06 Springfield round, clearly headstamped Frankford Armory and dated 1941, is an outstanding piece for collectors of U.S. military ammunition and World War II–era artefacts. Frankford Arsenal (often marked on cases as Frankford Armory) was one of the United States’ principal munitions facilities, and a 1941-dated cartridge provides a direct link to the crucial mobilisation period at the start of America's wartime production.
The cartridge offered here has been professionally rendered inert to recognised safety standards: the primer is deactivated and there is no propellant or other live components present. It retains its original brass case and projectile, showing period-appropriate patina and handling marks that authenticate its age and use. The clear 1941 date and factory marking make this an attractive reference piece for historians, curators, and dedicated collectors of service ammunition.
As a .30-06 calibre — one of the most historically significant service rounds used by U.S. forces — this dated example is suitable for museum displays, educational exhibits, photographic reference, restoration projects, or themed collections focusing on the Second World War. Its provenance and condition offer both visual interest and research value.
