Description:Neat sideloader made at the Eagle Iron works in Richmond. I know this because they made a lot of sideloaders and stamped them with AR, for Adolphus Roehm. The AR stamp is on the other half of this shell.

Unfortunately, the fellow who inerted this shell broke his drill bit in it and neglected to pass that info along to the next fellow who cut it. This resulted in an uneven cut, a broken saw blade and one angry saw operator. His loss is your gain, however, as the budget price indicates.
