What else can I help you with?
The phrase give them the whole nine yards. how many rounds were in that nine yards of ammunition?
One round of .50 caliber ammunition is 0.93 inches center-to-center, so nine yards works out to 302 rounds. The belts on the P-38 and the B-29 were up to 500 rounds. The Mustang was up to 400. The Spitfire was 350 rpg, but that was smaller ammunition. No one measured belt length in terms of yards, so this whole story is quite unlikely.

What is the origin of the phrase 'right out of the box'?
This is a real brain tester. I do Know the origins of several other phrases, such as "The Whole Nine Yards" referring to the 9 yds of fabric used for the Scottish great kilt. ***CORRECTION*** TO "THE WHOLE NINE YARDS" No suits, kilts or wedding veils here. (The Scottish did not use yards as a measurement!) This answer came straight from several WWII vets. In WWII, gunners in aircraft (tail gunners, belly gunners, etc) had limited space and weight available for ammunition. The length of a machine-gun bullet chain for these aircraft, when stretched out, measured 27 feet in length. So when the gunner "let him have it" he gave the enemy the "whole 9 yards." But I believe I just may have a starting point. In the latter part of the 1800's, est around 1860, Winchester was advertising its ammunition as The Most Accurate "Right Out of The Box".
