You'd go through quite a bit of brass shooting that gun. I suppose the steel cased ones would be better than the brass.

With regards to gun control in this country, everyone should be asking themselves one question:
What is it that this government feels they need to do, but can't do, unless the citizens of this nation are first disarmed?
(I seriously doubt you can come up with any plausible answers that you will like...)

That picture reminds me of the original Hawaii Five O. At the first it always shows a guy loading a revolver with shells that have spent primers in them. (Jim, I'm trying to get the thread back on topic).
Ain't that the flash GyroJet ammo with the rocket in the base.

Every normal man must be tempted at times to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats. -- H.L. Mencken
The notion that a radical is one who hates his country is naïve and usually idiotic. He is, more likely, one who likes his country more than the rest of us, and is thus more disturbed than the rest of us when he sees it debauched. He is not a bad citizen turning to crime; he is a good citizen driven to despair.― H.L. Mencken
"with liberty and justice for all"...must be 18 or older, not available in all states, void where prohibited, some restrictions may apply. D. Stanhope
"The remedy for evil men is not the abrogation of the rights of law abiding citizens. The remedy for evil men is the gallows." Thomas Jefferson
"To disarm the people is the best and most effectual way to enslave them." George Mason Co-author of the Second Ammemdment
Well you have all missed the point if the LEO's only have those rounds to practice with sure explains why when you give them live rounds they can't hit the bad guys but can sure rack up the innocent bystanders. Look at the LAPD when they were searching for one of their own they managed to kill 90 dogs, at least two vehicles and some innocents. Yep I would feel real safe if the LAPD were my go to police. Seems one of those trucks they unloaded what was it like 90 rounds into it that truck must have put up one heck of fight, forget the two women inside hoping they didn't get killed.
Beware of a government that fears its citizens having the means to protect themselves.

Gyrojet ammo had angled holes in the base to impart spin to stabilze in the smoothbore barrel.

The "Deadly dummy" ammo. Especially effective on idiots.
If you are going to make a hole in something. MAKE IT A BIG ONE!
Well obviously if it is on Fox news they are showing a bunch of "dummies"!
I came into this world kicking, screaming, and covered in someone elses blood. I plan to go out the same way.
Jim, someone needs to change a spring if the firing pin is doing that to the ammo.

If you watch British mysteries you will see this type of thing all the time. They are forever referring to a Luger as a revolver. I saw one crime show and one cop said to another, they retrieved the bullet and he slid a plastic bag toward the other cop and it had a complete pistol round in it.
