Gday Bentaz.

I find it incredible that there are 1480 posts in by his thread; how many repeats on cartridges?

I have no idea lol We are all old and forget. Probably really only a dozen or so unique cartridges.

Wombat · February 4, 2020, 12:07pm

There were a few doubles that were picked up on, but there really are quite a few unique ones.

Ok then I’ll kick us back off…

Something 45’ish, judging by that ball looking chode of a bullet. From 1917?

bentaz · February 5, 2020, 7:00am

Yes, it’s a 45’ish chode of a round!

Wombat · February 5, 2020, 7:34am

.45 Short Mars?

bentaz · February 5, 2020, 9:32am

Nope.

bentaz · February 5, 2020, 10:00am

Yes, yes it is!

juststarting · February 5, 2020, 10:11am

Is it American?

bentaz · February 5, 2020, 10:18am

No it’s not from Merica!

Wombat · February 5, 2020, 10:50am

juststarting · February 5, 2020, 11:39am

Ok, so, 45, British, semi-auto (rimless), pistol.

Is it a .455 Webley MK 1?

bentaz · February 5, 2020, 7:58pm

@1Fatman is there one more word you could stick in that answer?

1Fatman · February 6, 2020, 12:51am

I guess it would be auto?

bentaz · February 6, 2020, 1:10am

.455 webley auto Mk1
