3 inch 50
 

Had some Navy 3" 50 empty brass laying around since the Vietnam War and
decided to turn a couple of projectiles. Glued 4 pieces of 2" x 2" poplar
with some 1/4" oak plywood for the stripe. Projectile is 13" long x 3" dia.
Overall length of completed shell is about 30".

But throw the SOB into the fire and he will never again complain about
anything.
