Magnet fishing aka, I like treasure, garrrrr!

Back in the early-mid 80’s drought I did a walk along the Yarra riverbed through Richmond, pulled a solid 1930’s sidecar and chassis out along with some other bits and pieces, no guns (and I was looking). A fair few early car Chassis , lots of pushbikes and shopping trolleys were in the bottom. I reckon the Merri Creek or Maribyrnong river would maybe have more guns in them.


My new 400kg side pull magnet arrived today.
Pretty stoked :sunglasses:

This looks like some sort of bondage c*ck ring.


Seems its catching on everywhere.

Get on it, @GUN-DMC. Or everyone will fish everything out.

I wonder if you fish out a live round if you’d get charged for posessing live ammunition without a license :joy: ( if not a holder of a ’ weapons license ’ as they’re called in Qld )

How does a magnet attract ammunition? Neither brass, copper nor lead are magnetic.

I have found two shotshells and 3 live 30-06 rounds so far.
Steel heads on the shotshells and steel cased milsurp ammo.

@AusTac was it ADI 308s you had that where steel?
