Here's the old 20 mm gunner playing cribbage with his granddaughter on the board 45nut made from a 40mm casing. This was a big hit at Christmas. Anyone know where i could get a couple of 20mm casings?

Aw, darn. I thought you were using 40mm cases as the pegs...

My plan was to use 1911 firing pins for pegs. Unfortunately my stash of those got left up in Maine. You guys would have got a good laugh watching my wife and I turning these pegs out of brass rod chucked in a cordless drill in my BIL's basement using a flat file and a chain saw file :)

Dunno about 20mm empties. A while back Sportsman's Guide had 20mm dummies. Cheaper than Dirt often has dummy or empty shells of various sorts.

PM your address to me and I'll send you a 30mm case from an A-10.

I think my dad is looking for a 20mm case in particular as that was his gun.

OK, never mind then.
