This bejeweled item came out on a cart as I was about to leave GW. Since it was $5.99, I had to have it. The cashier called her manager because she was sure she could not sell it. I said “I’ve bought jars of jewelry here and found a bullet in the jar...it happens sometimes.” The manager said it was ok to sel. So I bought it. I’m guessing the person who drilled a divot to glue rhinestones into the bullets just thought this would be cute. I have no idea what I will do with it!

the indents mean they are dummy rounds, never had powder or live primer

Anyone that reloads ~~ pull the bullet, empty the powder and the machine will push out the primer. Then simply run the case to get the bullet seated properly. Still nothing I'd recommend but doable. Drilling the primer would likely see something best never seen especially if powder and bullet were still intact.

If you blow the picture up you can see the drill marks. There were never any primers in them. The indents on the sides show they are fake too, like mentioned above.

I agree though! No way would I want to drill a primer of a live round. :laughing7:

If these were rendered live they would most likely jam in the chamber when the wrinkles expanded outward. Cosmetic kitsch!

They would just fire form! :laughing7: If I had one, drill for a primer, I'd try it and report back! haha May be solid though.

Thanks for the info everyone. I think I’ll list them as “punk bullet stuff” and see what happens.
