    Well, I don't know about those Israeli wooden bullets but, the ones I have ( I shot some) were so corrosive you could almost see my FAL rust right before your eyes. I shot about 5 rounds, set my FAL in the corner and the next morning the gas block was covered with rust. I didn't know if I was going to be able to disassemble my gas block.

    Al,
    Well that doesn't help the profit margin!! Haha.

    Jsne,
    Thanks for following along. This was an enjoyable mystery for me too even if it didn't quite work out as planned.

    Everyone else,
    I have another mystery on the way. It MIGHT just be a Garandicon sniper. The serial number is obscured so I can't be certain yet. I will be posting about that too.

    Finally, here's some pics!
