|
| These little goodies are affectionately known as "nut busters." They are |
| simply shotgun shells enclosed in cardboard rolls with cardboard fins put on. |
| On the primer end of the shell is glued a small cork with a hole drilled |
| through it. A roofing nail fits in the hole snugly enough to stay in, but |
| loose enough to plunge into the primer upon impact. |
|
|
| Since the shell is not confined in the chamber of the gun, it will |
| naturally not cause the same amount of damage. But if it goes off between a |
| fellow's legs he can look forward to becoming a soprano. |
|
|
| These bombs are thrown singly or by the handful into the air over milling |
| crowds. The weight of the shell and stabilization by the fins causes the nut |
| buster to head straight downward. |
|
|
| It has tremendous effect as its presence is usually a suprise. The threat |
| of more coming is guaranteed to route any mob. |
|
|
| Not only does it go off on the pavement but it will also explode on |
| contact with a person's head or shoulder. At night it is impossible to trace |
| its point of origin. |

| SHOTGUN SHELL BOMB |
|
|
|
|
| A clever use for a plain shotgun shell is as a muffler bomb. The shell is |
| simply shoved up a car's exhaust pipe with a length of stiff wire until it |
| drops into the muffler. After a few minutes on the road the shell explodes, |
| totalling out the muffler and treating the driver to a sick kind of panic. |
