nbk2000 Moderator	posted January 05, 2000 07:50 PM In America you can buy nylon cases for $1 each in bulk. You live in australia, right darcy? So you are shit out of luck probably. Since they banned guns I'm sure you can't have grenade casings either. ------------------ "The knowledge that they fear is a weapon to be used against them." www.50megs.com/nbk2000
darcey Frequent Poster	posted January 05, 2000 08:32 PM the ban was only on semi and fully automatic weapons, not shell casing and all that shit. You can still get semi and auto weapons you just need to get the right licence for them. I have a friend whi is 19 with a fully auto and semi auto licence, he said it was for pest control!! The ban didn't really do much other then destroy alot of good weapons. Half of what where handed in where sold back to the owner by the cops anyway. Its a funny world down here. NBK2000....Where can you get these shells?? Internet?? Thinking i could order some for collecting (or what ever it takes to bullshit my way around).

darcey Frequent Poster	posted January 05, 2000 09:09 PM sorry about all these post but i post it think of something else. Would the force of the projectile going out of the launcher's barrel be enough to detonate a homemade blasting cap full of HMTD?? If so what else could you use for a blasting cap??
HMTD Factory Frequent Poster	posted January 06, 2000 03:04 AM Darcey you can make a switch in front of the projectile so upon impact, a circuitry is established(turn on the tungsten filament) and the heat can initiate the explosive. For the pipe, just make sure the bore is safe for the ammo to travel through, if the inner diameter of the pipe is too big, you'll need to "sabot" the ammo to make it travel safely inside the barrel.

darcey Frequent Poster	posted January 06, 2000 03:14 AM good idea but there are too many things that could go wrong. If the battery fucks up or the shock of the projectile moving out of the barrel disrupts something you will have a dud round. You just used good old blasting fuse (which i can't seem to find) the possiablities of something going wrong might be smaller.
