Please Help Identify these Cartridges?

Post by 2sharp

Just bought these, can anyone share some information on when they were made and by who? And of course for which type of modelgun they were made for? (they do fit my Kokusai .44 magnum)









Bottom of cartridges say "W-W Super" and "44 Magnum".

Any ideas or info is greatly appreciated

Those are indeed Kokusai .44 magnum shells , the early type , by early I mean chromed case and copper head, all new Kokusai shells are all brass I seem to recall.

Hi,
That is definitely Kokusai. It is said on the box.
This rounds been using for Kokusai revolver for long time by the time Kokusai release "new concept model", a HW version of revolver with smaller cylinder insert so that you can use dummy rounds from Malburryfield. For those who are interested in "new concept model", I can post a cylinder close up.

cheers,
