Silver bullets

    I have been thinking about this for a while. I go to shows and see some vendors selling bullets made of silver. They do not appear to be functional, so I guess werewolf protection is not a need. Why in the world does someone want a non-usable bullet made out of silver? Not trying to be judgmental, but it baffles me.

    Lots of nostalgia for the Lone Ranger? :)

    It's another interesting format for silver stackers...

    I have one I picked up on a whim maybe 2 months ago. I thought it was interesting.

    Of course it's not a real bullet but the shape of the entire cartridge (casing + bullet).

    But still interesting, especially to a pro-gun person. My wife wants one, too.

    I also picked up a few copper ones. Again, just because they were interesting to look at. And a "break" from rounds and coins.

    I'm waiting until NWT makes one the size of an ICBM.

  9. The last time I saw the "silver bullets" advertised, the price was much higher than a silver round or bar. An expensive novelty, IMO.

    we sold a couple in the shop where I work.

    they seem to be a novelty aimed solely at pro-gun people who want to overlap their 1st amendment enthusiasm with silver stacking

    So therefore we must invent a third category: numismatists, stackers, and spendthrift man-cave exhibitionists.

    does the above mean that they exhibit their man caves? or that they are exposing themselves in their man caves?

    Also made in chocolate form and sold by Sportsman's Guide. And would you believe, not deliverable to Massachusetts.

    I think it's werewolves and witches.

    The ammo for my 1898 Savage 303 is silver filled/tip lead.

    Hmmm. Chocolate gives you the opportunity to bite the bullet.

    get a 5oz, or 10oz or 25oz or even a 100oz ... definitely stacking.
