An inert and fully deactivated cartridge or round in 38 Special calibre. Also known as .38 Spec, 38 Spec, .38 Spl, 38 Spl. This round is the same type as used in many Smith and Wesson police revolvers, old West cowboy revolvers, lever action rifles such as the Winchester and Marlin. This cartridge has lead round nose (lead RN) heads or bullets. This is more authentic for cowboy or old West display since cartridges of this era were usually filled with gunpowder (black powder) with a lower expansion rate than modern smokeless powders. The 38 Special is still manufactured and used today. Please note, these inert cartridges are shipped with no powder and fired primers (indented). Warning, attempts to illegally re-activate will result in personal injury! Price is for one inert round only. Inert rounds shipped outside the UK may only be shipped by courier (eg UPS) due to civil aviation authority controls.

Extras available for this dummy round:

An new and unindented brass cup to fit into the primer pocket to give the appearance of a new, unfired round: Small Dummy Primer
Removal of the deactivated, inert primer from the round, leaving a hole or holes in the base that can be inspected to prove the round is inert and free from explosives: Depriming of Round
