12thengr Posted November 30, 2012 Share #2 Posted November 30, 2012 I've got an open box w/empty brass; box and brass both marked St. Louis '43. I think the blue and yellow markings denoted AP rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

45ACP Posted December 1, 2012 Share #4 Posted December 1, 2012 The blue and yellow band means AP was so you could tell at a glance that it was AP. Ball would have had a wide Red band around it. The cases would have been painted with the same color bands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
