30-06 Tru-shell cigar (Trademark pending)

[seamus7227]

Here is my version of what I think some people have called the cigar rifle shell pen. Either way, what I have done was ground off the black powdercoating on the finial so the brass shows, therefore matching the rest of the pen. I'm not really sure if anyone else has done this or not and posted on here. Dont want anyone to feel like I didnt give credit where credit is due.

No actually what i do is drill out the primer end, grind down the twist holder and then press it in. Then as an added security, i solder that piece in place. So to answer your question, no tubes insides the cartridge. Hopefully this pic will help

Seamus, that makes a real nice looking bullet pen. I like the finial that way. Nice work.

Thanks Paul! It gives a little variety from what I'm used to with the round top finials. The only problem I dont really care for is that because it is a 10mm tube, the upper barrel seems a little heavier than my usual rifle shell pen. If I could trim the weight down a bit, it would be great!

 

[PaulDoug]

Maybe add a little weight to the bottom to balance it out.

Perfect marrage there. Works with size rather then the 7mm tubes.

I must say my Tru-shell pens have sold more than any other pen in the last year.
