what do you guys do with the empty czech wooden ammo crates ?

i got an idea of making a coffee table for my gun room, any other suggestion?
 
I give them away to shooting buddies.

What the hell do you do with your strippers? I've got about 40 pounds of them now.

Send them to friends down south, stripper clips cost money down there. It's not hard to find friends in need who are willing to trade various things of equal value.

Before the usual suspects start furiously internetting about how illegal that is, IT'S NOT! I send my used clips to a buddy in Louisianna without any issues, yes the package is properly labelled, the gestapo have yet to come cavity search me.

As for the crates, I use the empties to store other ammo, parts, and small gear. I dig the coffee table idea!

Never thought of that and I do know some folks there.

4 crates and a sheet of thick glass makes a great coffee table. Or you can do 2 end tables out of the same materials. My kids are tired of their Lego smelling like Czech grease and galvanized steel.
 
I've bought stripper clips (and other accessories) from a yank off eBay once. Didn't seem to be any trouble getting them through customs, since they weren't any actual munition parts.

I'll probably be keeping one crate, but all others I'll ditch. I still have quite a few NATO ammo cans I "acquired" through the service. They're sufficient enough for collecting dust.

I actually just drilled a hole big enough for the trigger lock to go right through, it works fine like that!
