    Cool PIC!
    Boolits= as God laid it into the soil,,grand old Galena,the Silver Stream graciously hand poured into molds for our consumption.

    Bullets= Machine made utilizing Full Length Gas Checks as to provide projectiles for the masses.

    I had a crystal radio kit that included a small piece of galena embedded in a little cast lead button that was used with a "cat whisker" to serve as the detector. Along with a hand wrapped coil and other parts, it did pick up AM broadcast band radio. Made it in 7th or 8th grade.
