No delivery. You have to "demil" (de militarize) them on the spot. 50

It's going to be interesting who does finally buy them, and what they do
with them. Anyone with this knowledge, please keep us posted.


They are supposed to be "demilled", which will render them militarily
useless. Basically they will be ruined mechanically (the procedure is
outlined in the auction). Then they will most likely be sold for
steel scrap and melted somewhere.

What I am wondering about, is why did the military scrap them.


They probably failed xray testing before being reloaded.
