I just read the "About statement" on the website and it seems he is at the least anti bullets! LOL
If he does not want bullets/cases to be reused I would venture to guess he is anti gun as well. That said he has designed some nice looking jewelry.

He has the erroneous belief that if he collects all the spent casings and make jewelry out of it, manufacturers won't be able to make cartridges anymore...or something like that.
Good luck with that. |

Nothing on the site suggests an anit-gun agenda, and the list of charities doesn't send up any alarm bells. (Ricki Lake's still on the air?)

Why do I think this is about the biggest crock of BS ever encountered?

I sent them the following email, just for giggles:
Hello, A few of things... 1)The images on your front page, of the "bullets" (actually cartridges) are in fact rifle rounds. They would not be fired from a handgun, as in your picture. 2)"Manufacturers" do not pick up shell casings and reload them. There are a few commercial reloading operations in the USA but by FAR, most manufacturers use new, never fired brass. 3)Reloaders are generally not criminals nor soldiers. Criminals buy new ammo, soldiers are issued ammo. In other words, the brass you pick up would have never be in the hands of criminals anyway. 4)The percentage of ammo, in the USA, that is ever used in any sort of crime is vanishingly small. Tens of millions of rounds are manufactured on an annual basis. The percentage of those used in crime is so small as to be essentially immeasurable. The percentage of THOSE that are reloads is, for all intents and purposes, zero. Brian

I sent them an email about what their position is on gun control and I still have't received an answer.

I wonder if I can send in my own brass and have them do some cool designs just for me... Such as...
"Kill 'em all and let god sort them out"... "Here piggy piggy piggy"... "Big dogs Bark here and bite over there"... "Ticket punch for the slow black train ride"... Brent |
