bring a shovel to Flanders, and you can find all the used and unused shell cases you want from WW1.
you can take yer pick, german, english, french shells... different sizes, regular, shrapnell, gas... If you come in spring time, you won't even need a shovel, farmers will lay em by the side of the field for the army's bomb squad to come pick em up...

Hey, Ricky:
I loved that episode where David Bowie sang a song mocking you. Anyway, nice find on the shell casing. I guess.

I do not think that the 9mm offers enough stopping power. It does not make a big enough cavity and has poor penetration. If you want to stake your life on that girlie-euro-ammo go ahead. Me, i use this...even if i shoot him in the pinkie the BG will be knocked on his butt.

My dad had some similar to that from the ships he was on. He used them as ashtrays.

Yeah, but you can't get a collet neck-sizer die for something that large. You have to have a die custom made with a fired shell from your gun.
