If you ever wanted to know how a shotshell is put together and how it works just look at one of the Wanda's. You can see the powder and shot inside through the almost clear walls of the Lexan** plastic shell. If you are a shotshell collector you need a least one of the Wanda see through shells to add to your collection. The plastic overshot wad was designed to plane out of the shot line shortly after leaving the barrel. They were really high tech for their day.

They made shells in different transparent colors including red, yellow, green and maybe blue. We have available for sale some red 12 gauge, green 20 gauge and yellow 20 gauge. I believe they only made 12GA, 20GA and where planning on producing 16GA shells before they closed. I also believe they only made red, green, yellow shells and blue for use internally for testing.

These are old shells and probably should not be fired in your shotgun. All ammunition is for collecting/decorative purposes only and we in no way guarantee or imply them to be functional in anyway other than collecting or decorative purposes.
