trappa 517 Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 Just found a bullet while out metal detecting. Its a colt .45 bullet. Not sure of legalities with regard to owning a live bullet that i havent got a cert for so i disposed of it. Thought id share a pic. Was going to clean it all up but thought there was no point.

Nik_B 3,790 Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 I found a full clip of 7.92 Kar98 ammunition when I was in France. It was near a system of WW2 German bunkers. I was well chuffed and thought it was pretty interesting but then realised that I would be breaking the law and be hung out to dry if caught with them on the ferry home. The were corroded and unusable but knowing customs.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
