    Default 50 Caliber Bottle Opener

    At last weekends Torrington Gin Show a customer aked me if I could make him a 50 cal bottle open to go along with the 50 cal pen he bought.
    So after doing some research, got out my good quality metal files, installed a bi-metal band saw blade and this is what I came up with.
    I think these will be great sellers at the upcoming gun shows.

    That one is certainly thinking outside the square, I was thinking a bottle opener inserted into the cartridge. Excellent work.
