Reversed Bullets

[barnbwt]

The goal is a locking breech gas op tube gun that uses ppsh mags and a quick change barrel. I'm limited by length, but the lockup will be built to handle 10mm or maybe even 45WM (short bullets will fit). It's kind of overkill for Tok as is, except where gentleness on brass is considered.

Spalding, in WW1 bullets were pulled from 30/06 ammo, turned around and reseated, the purpose? Snipers used small metal shields that handled small arms fire, but the when the flat end of the bullet hit the metal the opposite side scaled off. Tanks, same thing, it was like hitting an old porcelain stove.

Guffy, This is what I saw on History Channels' "Digging up the Trenches" The idea was that the scale would get into the snipers eyes, or at least make him more careful while sniping

Spalding was a character in the movie Caddyshack. (Or was it Spaulding? What ev. Or a maker of basketballs?)

I think the correct term, in regards to nasty flying metal splinters, is spalling.
