SKS Pallet?

[CMichaud]

OK noticed this the other day on some pallets. Are these pallets from the shipment of the SKS/MN rifles and ammo?

Just curious - thanks!

Why do you say that?

Wood is treated according to standard developed by IPPC. Many crates and pallets used in international shipping have that. Including firearms crates.

C'mon guys please. Yeah OP the leaf reminds me of Russian surplus ammo. I like it. Good post.

Geez now I have to start collecting pallets!

The blue Pallets are from CHEP, a company that constantly rebuilds them from "green sources". There is a deposit on these I think.
IPPC is International Plant Protection Convention, controls spread of plant pests & disease in plant products. The "Seed Head" is their symbol.
MX-588 stands for Mexico treated to standard 588.
HT stands for Heat Treated.

You see the seed head symbol on wooden surplus ammo boxes & rifle crates, it shows the shipping material meets the IPPC standards, its a modern mark.

That Pallet will only be collectable if Trump builds a wall.

Don't believe what people are saying. Those are very rare 1952 Tula Arsenal pallets, very collectable and sought after. I have a couple of you want them for $200 each. But shipping will be difficult.

Thanks for the info guys. I just saw it and thought it looked like the marking on my ammo crates.

Got your back. There needs to be an esoteric pallet thread.
