humperdingle Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 ha ha ok it's a 9mm garden gun. The cases are .22 crimped with shot inside instead of a single shot,tha'ts why you can have one on shot gun cert not a section I hope that helps No, it's EITHER a 9mm garden gun OR a .22 shotshell.

night owl Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 must be a .22 shot then mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackpowder Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 I believe that what we know as 9mm garden gun was once known as No 3 garden gun, and .22 shotshell was called No1 garden gun, dont ask me what No 2 was as I dont have a clue. 9mm cartridges by Eley had copper heads and paper cases, once the paper cases had a chueqred pattern but later were plain dull green. The interesting thing is that the paper cases seperated from the copper head and were supposedly fired down the barrel, a real risk when being used indoors in say a hay barn. Thats my recollection of when my sole armament was an , Acme No 3 garden gun. Blackpowder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to fire Fiocchi 9mm in the garden gun i had years ago...... these were a bright silver shell, all metal,and very good on rats and close pigeons....... I can still see the holes in my Dads chicken shed!! those were the days Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best shot a running hare at 15 yards stone dead, a total fluke several very low pheasants and sitting rabbits. The staff of the old Forrest of Kelso shop were a mine of information in the 60's and I was told that pre WW2 you could buy solid ball loads in this calibre called I think breech cap bullets or somthing like that.
