    Williams type 3 cleaner bullets & others

    I got out today to a good old spot. One of the only places that I've dug the type 3 Williams bullets.

    You're welcome buddy.

    First complete spencer bullet

    I've found six of those types there so far. You can see the marks in them. It might have had a piece of paper glued to it. I looked at my Gettysburg bullet book & they're in it. They're Watervliet arsenal 44 cal.

    First complete spencer bullet

    Thanks buddy. Yes I found two Burnside carbine bullets yesterday. It's a pistol bullet. It appears to have marks from cloth or something on it. It's the only one like that from yesterday.

    First complete spencer bullet

    Thanks buddy. My digging buddy found a few in here but not me til yesterday. I'm glad I didn't hit it. It would've went to pieces.

    First complete spencer bullet

    It's called a .56/56 spencer rifle cartridge. It says the bullets are .56 cal but the bore is .52 cal. It is a rim fire self contained rife cartridge. One of the first to see use in the civil war. The bullets I've found in this spot are for the spencer rifle. The hadn't issued any carbines in...

    First complete spencer bullet

    I hunted a cavalry spot today. I dug my first complete spencer bullet along with other cavalry relics.

    New spot

    Thanks. It turned out pretty good buddy. I got lucky & walked into a patch of civil war relics.

    Civil war lead & a gag loop

    Cool. They did the research on my great great grandfather. I stop in & check stuff out once and a while. I don't live far from Gettysburg relatively speaking. I want to show them my explosive bullets.

    New spot

    Lol Yes all discarded. I know having the right equipment helps greatly but luck has something to do with it buddy. New permission at a old place. They said it was hunted 20 years ago. No DD coils were around in wide use then. The yard should hold some cool stuff I hope.

    New spot

    I tried a new spot out today. It turned out pretty good. I got into a little patch of relics. It's Gettysburg campaign.

    I dug my first regiment number

    It's bent up. Who knows what happened to it.

    Civil war lead & a gag loop

    I dug one years ago & took it into a place in Gettysburg. He said it was a sword hanger. It isn't. It's part of a bridle set up. They're cool looking though & old.

    Civil war lead & a gag loop

    I found some lead & a post war gsg loop today. The gag loop make me wonder how something like that works.

    I dug my first regiment number

    The brass was my G2 & most of the lead was GPX4500. Set them as wide open as possible & still maintain stability.

    I dug my first regiment number

    Thanks buddy. It's my first of any hat pin. I dusted off my G2 & dug some brass.

    I dug my first regiment number

    Thanks buddy. It's a strap adjuster. They used them on the knap sack straps. I've seen a little bit bigger & heavier ones used on belt rigs.

    I dug my first regiment number

    I dug my 1st regiment number today. It was brass day for sure.
