A detective determined it was a dummy by shaking it? What if it was filled to capacity?

Logic for the win.

That primer looked live as hell to me.

I had a chance to get some 20mm rounds in links (less than 10), but I didn't want to have any problems so I left them alone.

After seeing that pic, I strangely want an MK44 round! (Inert!)
It makes the 20mm look like a .223 round!

A guy I used to work with had a nice one that he used as an ash tray.

It was about 3ft tall, at least 5" around at the base.
Tip was unscrewed and the whole thing was hollow.

Keeping my ears open tonight for an explosion over at the station.

Had I known you were in CH, I would have suggested seeing my friend over at Sport Chalet. Tall, older guy, thinning gray hair.
He's former EOD and has related several stories about back yard and garage finds... complete with green crystals.

Probably 20mm from a LAV chain gun!
Measure and you'll know for sure

When I was in service, LAVs used 25mm. Did they downsize to 20mm?

I wondered the same thing.....but I'm not the expert....and that's also why I had him take it anyways.....that thing looked LIVE to me!

I have a better solution

- Take it to a local out door plinking range and fill it with .223 from a few hundred yards away

What's the worst that could happen?

Lol...The worst that can happen is I have a 20mm round firing back at me! Haha...but your idea sounds like fun.
