Title: Need I.D. on this pistol bullet please!
Post by: Ripcon on October 25, 2020, 12:38:51 AM

Here's a very unusual bullet that I need help with in identifying it's type. I've never seen one like it before.
It's a .32 calibre and appears to be a Colt variety. However, it has an unusual base. Any ideas on this one??

It’s in poor shape, but it appears to be a Sharps.
