Haven't posted any pens for a while.

These bullet were made before Christmas for some markets and were the first time I used .303 cal rifle cartridges with a Parker refill.

The first one with a black acrylic/brass accent centre band

Excellent Pens Fred,
Like the use of a primer end as a Centre Band, balances the look of the Pen.
I am suprised that a shed snake skin would be suitable for casting, I have always thought of them as very fragile. Live and Learn.
Your Fit and Finish is excellent
Great work.
Brian.

Thanks Brian, yes I agree the primer end as centre band gives a balanced look.

The shed snake skin blanks are made by a member of Woodwork Forums in Oz, Nai84, he does a great job.
