.223/5.56 Brass Bullet Slices — Thin Cut, Polished (Qty 15)
These are genuine once-fired .223 Remington/5.56 NATO rifle brass casings, sliced into thin, uniform pieces ready for earrings, necklaces, pendants, bracelets, rings, pins, and keychains. Every casing is wet tumbled, then individually hand-inspected — a real person looking at every single piece, not a machine. From there, each slice is precision-cut and individually hand-filed to remove sharp edges and ensure a smooth, completely round finish, ready for gluing or soldering with no jagged edges to deal with. Headstamps vary — a mix of military and commercial casings — since these are genuine once-fired brass from multiple sources, not manufactured to be identical.
Prefer nickel instead of brass, or need the open hole deprimed for a crystal or wire? See our nickel version or our deprimed brass version.

FAQ
FAQ
Q: Are these safe to handle?
A: Yes — completely inert, spent primer intact, no powder, cannot be fired.
Q: Will all 15 pieces look identical?
A: No — headstamps and primer color vary since these are genuine once-fired casings from military and commercial sources, not manufactured to be uniform.
Q: Are these available deprimed?
A: Yes — see our deprimed version if you'd like the open hole for a crystal, wire, or tie-through instead.
Q: Is .223/5.56 bigger than a pistol caliber slice?
A: Roughly similar diameter to 9mm/.380, but rifle brass like this has a slightly different profile and weight due to the higher-pressure rifle casing wall.
Q: When will my order ship?
A: Most orders ship within 1-2 business days.
