Original Remanufactured Item: The 8x56R cartridge was standard for Mannlicher small arms during WW2. The loaded clip is inserted into the magazine and drops out when empty. IMA has obtained a small quantity of remanufactured dummy cartridges and signal flares that had once been part of a large military collection. All of them have been manufactured by using inert fired cartridge cases and inserting bullets or wads. They were made for display purposes and were not dimensioned for functioning through the action. To simulate the early or World War 1 look, cupronickel (nickel-colored) bullets were used, although the cases may be of any date or manufacturer. The later or World War 2 look is provided by using gilding-metal (copper-like) colored bullets.
