12 gauge pinfire

You can make them from solid brass for the head and copper water pipe for the body, if you have a lathe. The water pipe needs to be expanded and soldered into the head. I have made 16 guage shells that way. Important to use brass pins so that you do not damage the hammers I also have some nifty little pistol shells with a removeable insert for the primer but again you need a metal lathe and in the case of the pistol shells some skill to make them
