All steel construction, complete with the vertical feed chute and wood transit chest. The feed chute or cartridge guide is the part that installs on top of the machine that the rounds are dropped into. Appears to be complete and functional, however, we have not tested it. Condition overall is very good, shows age, but more from storage than use.
