Wooden Crates U.S. Ammo Pattern

Inside the package is 15 U.S. style ammo boxes in three sizes of 5 pieces each. There is no instructions, but then none are really required.

I found this resin accessory set at the 2011 IPMS USA Nationals in Omaha. When it comes to resin products I'm quite wary, as quite often I've found casting quality can be quite spotty with various imperfections, copious flash and more often than not, numerous pin holes. Not so with these items from Armand P. Bayari. I inspected these for a long time looking for casting problems and could not find any. What I really liked was the lack of any seam and the pour stub located on the bottom of each box, which should make clean up a snap. Detail is nicely done with a fine wood grain.

item	item measurements (inches) length x width x height	1:1 scale equivalent (inches)
top boxes	0.415 x 0.230 x 0.150	29.88 x 16.56 x 10.8
middle boxes	0.315 x 0.190 x 0.110	22.68 x 13.68 x 7.92
bottom boxes	0.325 x 0.220 x 0.170	23.40 x 15.84 x 12.24

All in all this is a very nice set with some of the nicest cast resin pieces I've seen.
