NRA Creedmoor Commemorative Ammo Box

Description The NRA was founded in 1871 by a group of New York National Guardsmen, with a mission to promote marksmanship training and national defense. In 1872, the NRA acquired Creedmoor, their first shooting range. The inaugural Creedmoor shooting match was held on June 21, 1873. Our newest decorative ammo box commemorates the beginnings of this great organization. Using a rare dye sublimation process, images from the NRA archives are permanently infused onto the box’s solid pine walls --- an engraving of the first shooting match on front, with the original Creedmoor crest on either side. The crisp NRA shield on the lid is embossed using printing equipment that dates to the early 1920s, lending an authentic air, and linking disparate generations of rifle enthusiasts. A meticulous, five-step process is used to create our box’s lustrous finish. Designed to hold 500 rounds of 2 5/8” 12 gauge ammo, the NRA Creedmoor box is also perfect for storing household items and gun cleaning supplies. Details include 2 strap hinges, metal lock hasp and hammered nail heads on the lid stringers. Size: 16”W x 10”H x 10”D. Made in USA.
