Items mentioned last week:
On the left is a metal 12 gauge shotgun shell case. They were reloadable, which would fit with my grandfather’s personality. The item on the right is a funnel (of sorts) to help with the reloading.
This is the funnel slipped over the shell.
I’m not sure what this is called but it is used to set a primer in the shell so it can be fired.
This is the “crimper” in action.
And this is to measure shot or gunpowder. Note the notches that allow the inner chamber to be expanded to accommodate specific amounts.
Maybe it’s just me, but I like this kind of stuff. It shows a side of my grandfather that is consistent with how I remember him, yet completely unknown to me.
