    Default Actual 12 Gauge .........

    Secret Compartment Key Ring.
    I used a 12 Gauge Gevelot Shotgun Shell with a paper casing and brass base.
    Polished the bass and applied 4 coats of lacquer using my Dipping Method.
    Removed the inert primer by wetting the gunpowder and pressing out with a transfer punch, pressed in key ring holder and CA'd in SS tube for removable brass end cap. All these parts are from a Shotgun Shell Key Ring kit that I had laying around.

    Will see next month how these will go over at up coming Gun Shows.

    Les you never cease to amaze me in your thinking outside the square. Looking at the photo, the end cap is a pressure fit to get into the compartment. I think they will go very well, especially being a genuine 12 gauge shell and no a replica. Well done mate.

    Cheers

    Much better looking that the replicas/kits.
    Plus the name and gauge stamped in the end make it unique and show its real.

    I use to skeet shoot as well as do quite a bit of hunting around the Cape York Peninsular, about 15 years ago. When I think now of all the 30 30 shells and shotgun shels I left laying on the ground ,.......
    I never forget anything I remember !!
