I get a few deliveries on Friday, been waiting a while for them, so I open the good stuff first... and as I'm looking at the awesomeness of the product I ordered mum just opens the door, as usual, to bring me one of her fruit smoothies... and starts freaking out... Why you ask? Because in my hand is a 9mm and a 45... with 5 more rounds of each on my desk... stressed  A Picture of all 12 rounds, taken with my mobile phone. Thus I spent the next two hours explaining and trying to calm her down that the rounds were not real... that they are dummy rounds.. and the reason they look real is because they are made from actual fired brass... When my next awaited delivery comes in, a M1911A1 pistol, I'll wait until both my parental units are asleep before I open it... rolleyes

Of my six 9mm rounds:
Four reads: WIN 9mm LUGER
One reads: S&B 9mm LUGER (and a small symbol)
And the last one reads: R-P 9mm LUGER
So four are made by Winchester.
One from Sellier & Bellot, a Czech ammo manufacturer.
And the last one is from Remington Arms, the R-P headstamp on their ammo stands for "Remington-Peters".

unless you are in the legitimate military, a law enforcement officer , legalized security person, or have actual fear for your life (and then only 1 handgun is needed) you don't need firearms.
Rifles for legalized hunting are excluded from the "don't need" list. But then those rifles should only be used during the proper posted hunting seasons,
If he wants to start a collection of guns, fine- but no need to get bullets-
AND TAKE IT FROM AN EXPERT WHO HAS HAD TO USE THEM IN THE LINE OF DUTY: Dummy bullets can do a lot of harm to a person or pet!
Men and their toys....... what a bunch of .........

Did you people not see the part where these rounds are NOT REAL!! YES, they are made from post-fired brass, but aside from that they are FAKE! DISCLAIMER THESE DUMMY ROUNDS ARE FOR THEATRICAL PURPOSES ONLY.
THEY ARE NOT TO BE CHAMBERED IN ANY FIREARM, EVEN FOR TEST PURPOSES.
THEY ARE POST-FIRED SAMIS SPECIFICATION AMMUNITION, THE CARTRIDGES
WILL BE EXPANDED BEYOND SAMIS SPEC AND AS SUCH WILL NOT CHAMBER OR
FIT ACCORDING TO MANUFACTURERS SPECIFICATIONS.

All this over some fake pistol rounds...
How will you all react when I get some 7.62x39mm (AK), 5.56x45mm NATO (AR/M16), and .308 Winchester rifle rounds?
