Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Are these replica or machined shells? No, these are genuine shotgun shells that have been actually fired and recovered. Because they are real spent casings, you can expect minor authentic wear and marks from the firing process, which adds rustic character to your crafts.

Are these safe to use for home crafts? Absolutely. These shells are completely inert. They contain no powder and no live primers, meaning they cannot be fired. They are completely safe for DIY projects, though they do contain small parts and should be kept away from small children.

Do these shells need to be cleaned before I use them? We individually inspect every shell to ensure there are no significant dents, rust, or deep scratches. However, they are shipped unwashed. Depending on your specific craft or jewelry project, you may want to wash them prior to use.
