jimdfish Posted September 29, 2004 Report Share Posted September 29, 2004 CE we used to buy used 9mm cases and bullets and put them together with key rings and sell them on the market. Made a few quid Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red_stag88 Posted September 29, 2004 Report Share Posted September 29, 2004 If they do go, I know what to do with the barrel of empties on the shoot I beat. Lots of empties from a 250bird day, where all the guns are as old as ern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the last engineer Posted September 29, 2004 Report Share Posted September 29, 2004 These five empty cartridges all have a fired primer inserted in the base and are stamped CBC 12. The ink stamp on the side reads 'CBC High Impact 70mm chSG'. Diameter is 20mm, length is 70mm. Condition is good. All are safe and legal as per Ebay rules. Thanks for looking and happy bidding. i dont think i've ever heard "5 M/T HULLS" described so uniquely, l found myself looking for chapter 2 , another case of over discritive ebay power ,this guy must be a realator martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apbuild Posted September 29, 2004 Report Share Posted September 29, 2004 Bit naughty really. I just asked the seller if I could: 1. Fit a clipper cigarette lighter into the cartridges, (like the ones you see at the seaside novelty tobacconists). 2. Re-load the empty shells with party streamers, (the ones you buy at joke shops are never powerful enough). Wonder what the response will be!

tiercel Posted September 29, 2004 Report Share Posted September 29, 2004 If you look at what hed has sold he has had £5 for 1 bullet and£10.50 for 15 spent rounds. The bloke is not that thick at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted September 30, 2004 Report Share Posted September 30, 2004 I thought this was going to be a post from crookie, announcing that he is increasing his charges from £1 per empty cartridge case in the hide, to £1.50. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onelosttiger Posted September 30, 2004 Report Share Posted September 30, 2004 When i went to the Duxford airshow in september i bought some inert 20mm hispano cannon rounds......the stall was packed with people buying all kinds of rounds...i can see the attraction of buying something that is connected to a particular point in time and has some history behind it......but the history of a guy plugging a rabbit or pigeon doesnt seem to have the romance of air combat in the fortys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
