One For the Ammo Counters !

[flash]

I was looking into options for ammo tokens for those of us that use limited ammo for Lewis guns, or, just in general, when I came across this laser cut mdf 'Rifle Bullet Tokens' product by Charlie Foxtrot Models in the UK:


Each round is about 1" x 1/4" in old money and you get 50 rounds in a bag so there are plenty to go around.
As you can see I have modified some by cutting off the bullet to create an empty casing to represent reload phases when the gun runs dry.
At £2.75 a bag it's not a huge layout.
It may be too fiddly for some but they fit nicely on a plane card, are easier to count than a stack of card tokens at a glance & can be painted if desired.

This is a very cool find, Dave! While I have not succumbed to 'counting bullets' yet, with something like this to help, I could see where it would be quite practical.

Thanks for finding these and sharing the link.

All the best,
Matt

They are really cool - I have been using micro dice on my special consoles, but they look really good

I think something like this would steer me toward ammo limits.
Perhaps Herr Oberst could make something like this as a 'bonus' for pre-orders ?

Very nice and good info.

They were a good 'find', Dave. I was just going to use a 6-sided die for a Lewis gun.

Warbases do a couple of ammo tokens too.

Good idea! I have a box of .303 spent cases waiting for reloading, I might use them!
