One of my favourites is the Crimson Pirate.

It['s not quite the display as seen in this trailer, but the film is damned funny.

Now Blackbeard was a pirate bold
And he sailed the Caribbean
He was ten feet tall and black as night
So they gave him a Blackbeard
and he took a bite...

Now Blackbeard's dead and gone
But the dreadful memory lingers on.

It was an ice cream commercial when I spent a month in Australia - back in the early 1970s. :D

"Fifteen men on the dead man's chest—
...Yo-ho-ho, and a bottle of rum!
Drink and the devil had done for the rest—
...Yo-ho-ho, and a bottle of rum!"

Quit singing about it and just give me the rum already. :rolleyes: Remember, dead men tell no tales.
 
It's deer season here, loaded with slugs right now.

Where can I obtain a round-nosed bullet, about .223 (7.62) ?
I only need the bullet (our Police can get Very Determined about arms & ammunition)
because I have a brass case and want to make it into a key fob thing.

Try ebay. They sell everything!
 
Imaginary ebay? Oh, were we being serious? Okay, then, an antique store? I can check the rules on mailing and see what I can get you. I know several people who probably have casings.

It's not the case I need; it's the actual bullet; the bit that gets chucked out from the barrel. As long as it will fit into the neck of the case I have (5.56mm rifle) and has a round tip, I'll be OK.
:rose:
