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.
