First DIY Kilt Pin...A Bang! Up Job

[Birddog]

First kilt pin I have made... .308 168grn match round. This was a blank for a rifle I used to reload for. It was used to match overall cartridge length to the throat of the rifle.

That's a very appropriate kilt pin for a camo kilt.

Who made that kilt?

[Birddog]

George, at the moment that is a secret, because I told the creator that I would take photos of me in it(I promise, soon!!!), and allow him create a thread about it.
Without diving into a weapons discussion, I reload most of my ammunition, and found this in my stuff. I don't have that rifle anymore, so, what better way to use the peice.

I'm looking forwards to "the reveal"

Nice kilt! Love the kilt pin as well, very appropriate. Now if you could belt link a few together for me.........

If I did that, your kilt would drop to your ankles!

You say that like it's a bad thing.

They had a belt made up of .308 shells at Hot Topic near me. You might check there or online if that's something you actually want.

Unique looking pin, but appropriate Is that USMC digital camo?

Out of curiosity did you flatten or cut the back of the cartrige so it is flush against the apron? What kind of pinback to you choose to use and did you weld or use epoxy to secure it?
