ID 22 round?

Post by dkmlever »

I think the picture with the ? is a 22 BB cap but would like to know what it is from the group. I can tell you it works just fine on backyard pests without very much noise - about like clapping your hands.

My dad had a whole container of those when I was a kid. Fun to shoot out of my Stevens single shot. He called them stingers, but I don't think that was the correct name. I've seen some since, but can't remember the mfg.

I wasn't aware that you could get any of the old style bb/cb caps still. Cool, I'll definitely have to source some.
