    all legal to own, not a lot of value but enough for a good steak I'd say. the 38's probably 50 cents each the brass 2.00 each If somebody really wants them you might do a little better but not much

    If you decide to shoot the .38 rounds, this is what they will look like...... REM-UMC .38 tracer. REM-UMC is "Remington Union Metallic Cartridge".

    The ammunition will probably fire, but the tracers may not ignite.

    A friend and I bought some WW2 .45 tracers, and the tracers did not light. However, they were good 'smokers', and were just as much fun as tracers, in the daylight. On calm days, we could empty the magazine, and still see where they all went.

    The Army used those FL brass 12 gauge OO Buck at least as late as the mid '50s in Korea for guard duty. They were more durable than cardboard shells which had to be loaded and unloaded every two hours in trench/riot guns.
