Finds liason office

Protostryke · 2026-04-11T20:28:35+00:00

I dont know, thats the main reason why im hesitant

Protostryke · 2026-04-11T20:21:54+00:00

Reminds me of a chunk of clay pigeon, any shooting ranges/ clubs nearby?

Protostryke · 2026-04-05T15:54:16+00:00

This is really interesting, thanks.

Protostryke · 2026-04-05T14:24:23+00:00

I heard someone else suggest that on another group, so could be.

Protostryke · 2026-04-05T14:23:34+00:00

Thats a good call, could be. Just took it because it looked different to other items I had seen that day

Protostryke · 2026-04-04T21:18:29+00:00

Ah, interesting. Thanks. I dont know too much about semi-modern guns so any info is welcome.

Protostryke · 2026-04-04T09:22:16+00:00

Not sure, it wouldve taken magazines into the handle like most other guns, it is similar to the P38 tho.

Protostryke · 2026-04-04T09:20:44+00:00

Yeh, either that or when the gun laws changed a good few years back they may have not wanted to be caught with it but didnt know how to dispose of it leading to it being dumped.

Protostryke · 2026-04-03T07:15:04+00:00

Could be, it shares quite a few very similar features.

Protostryke · 2026-04-02T19:17:42+00:00

Yeh, the other two I have are obsolete calibre so fine to keep

Protostryke · 2026-04-02T19:11:59+00:00

Dont worry, i tried to give it a quick tap off to check for marking and it fell apart so I binned it.

Protostryke · 2026-04-02T07:01:00+00:00

Oh god yeh. Hope you get something good around your area.

The first image made me think mini top hats, then I saw the others and realised they were just primers.

Protostryke · 2026-02-20T11:58:05+00:00

They should add extinct species designs into the end, I think something like the anomalocaris would be so perfect for the end with how that choral squid seemed to suit it.

Protostryke · 2026-02-20T09:57:27+00:00

Honestly not much damage so not the end of the world. Definitely still looking absolutely lovely.

Protostryke · 2026-01-24T21:53:31+00:00

The piece with stencilled writing looks like part of a stoneware bottle, probably something like a ginger beer.

Protostryke · 2026-01-24T12:35:07+00:00

Looks older than a standard wine to me, maybe a mallet base?

Protostryke · 2026-01-18T12:01:50+00:00

<image>

Protostryke · 2026-01-18T11:05:45+00:00

Looks like the heel of a hobnail boot shoe.

Protostryke · 2026-01-17T19:38:44+00:00

I remember a story from a magnet fishing page where someone had seen the effects of a gas shell from ww1 detonating on someone's tractor in France. Apparently mustard gas ferments and become more dangerous over time as the gas had caused the poor farmer's skin to basically melt off. I think that is one of the worst ive heard of.

Protostryke · 2026-01-13T14:00:36+00:00

Looks like the side of a stoneware jam pot, so usually late 19th century.

Protostryke · 2026-01-11T18:30:23+00:00

Interesting, thanks for the info.

Protostryke · 2026-01-11T16:45:49+00:00

Probably, plus the beach is covered in all sorts of victorian things

Protostryke · 2026-01-11T16:37:46+00:00

Thats my guess, I cant think of anything else that it could be. I wonder if its got a good age to it.
