cc6pack,

The one that was desinged not to explode. Was it used to penetrate walls to forts? Was there any record kept on what the different types were intended for?

Sort of that one was to small for forts, more for buildings, other fortications, trench lines, other Artillery pieces, things along that line.

Here's a site that explains in more detail about CW Artillery.

Dennis,
you have some nice stuff....
when we used to do flea markets a few people were always looking for that kind of stuff.
Hard to find... One antique dealer told me he had a man who he sent out to the market for him just to pick things up. [;)]

Star,

When there is no snow on the ground I get in as much riding as possible. I rode from North Ohio to Myrtle beach last year ,and we are planning a ride to the Florida keys as soon as warm weather arrives.

cc6pack,

Here are some of the shells I collect. Not quite as old as yours , but some are quite old. I love the old window shells. They used to have them on display wherever shotshells were sold.

sounds like fun.[8D]
that pic of the shells looks pretty with all the colors...
never thought I'd say that about gun shells.
crop it in tight and it would look really nice.
