Sadly, rust heave over the years has split the rubber down one side, but it's still good enough as a display piece.

Is that the chamber of a revolver in photo No.2?
No Amount Of Evidence Will Ever Persuade An Idiot (probably not Mark Twain)

I think it's part of a wiring connector plug?
Yes, I'm back(ish).

Just like to say that at the time I had no connection with this group whatsoever, and we all do daft things when were young & havent a care in the world. Oh and we did know exactly what we were looking at & handling by the way.

I agree!
It is difficult to believe that people with no understanding of what they are looking at are prepared to handle potential explosive materials
My understanding of this groups attitude and policy is that trespassing or accessing private or government land without permission for any purpose is actively discouraged and frowned upon.
