About This Item

DSCN6985

An INERT (primer and powder has been removed!!!...Bullet will not fire!!!) 7.62x51mm bullet turned into a key chain. The 7.62x51mm was the bullet of choice for most of the free world during the cold war, prior to Viet Nam when the USA adopted the wimpy 5.56mm cartridge and forced NATO to follow suit. To date, few, if any, other rifle rounds can compair to the "American" 7.62mm round for lethality and effectiveness in battle rifle chamberings. It was used in the American M-14, Germany's H&K G3, and, more importantly, in the Fabrique National FAL rifle, which was used by most of NATO during the cold war, as well as 90 total countries during it's service life. This key chain is sent to Russia, not in hostility, but merely as a reminder of what once was.

It would appear that this TB has gone missing or been muggled. If you have the TB, please place it in another cache or trade it to another cacher so others can enjoy its discovery and so it can continue on its mission.

If anyone is willing to return it to me, I will provide an address to mail it to and will repay your efforts with some nice mementos.

This TB had a very memorable beginning and I hate to see it lost.
