50 cal beer opener

[Jered Joplin]

Jeff decided to make a beer bottle opener from a spent 50 cal case. One can only assume that he got thirsty at work and was without proper tactical equipment by his side.

Introducing the high speed low drag, (not airport approved) bottle opener:

 

[Maelstrom]

How well does it hold up to repeated use and how much?

 

[bcuzisedso]

There was a guy selling these on the Hide not too long ago for $15...they are awesome and will last forever. Jeff's version has some fancy workmanship!

 

[HawkDriver]

I wouldn't mind having one of those.

This! I was actually hoping this was the same guy that sold them before because they are great... but I screwed up and gave all 5 I bought away as gifts. All 5 are still being used after 3 years... I've tried stealing one back and just can't get it done!

Nice job here!

 

[Triad]

I bought 30-40 of something like this from a retired SF guy several years ago. He was making them as a retirement "hobby".
I have two here that get a lot of use, they will last......

 

[Jered Joplin]

I guess it depends on the availability of brass and bullets. To recoup the money we would probably have to sell them for $20-$25. brass isn't cheap and it's hard to get right now along with the bullets. Jeff's version is a little nicer than the standard cut on one. We'll run them all through the CNC. If you guys are really interested we'll check the price and availability and get an accurate price.

 

[Hasgun Willtravel]

May I suggest a name?

The Tactical Beverage Entry Tool

 

[Jered Joplin]

Sounds like you just named it to me!

 

[jbell]

That could come in handy, but what bullet are you using? It should be armor piercing incendiary. Put me in for 2, send me a bill (or let us know how to order them...).

I could probably find uses for at least 3, especially if they were in the $20.00 range or a little lower......

Definitely a great Name!

 

[Jered Joplin]

I'll see what I can find on the net for used brass.

 

[GunGasm]

I would be down for 5 of them. Congrats on the lil one Jered!

 

[jbell]

Jered,
It seems to me that there may be people who you know that might be able to get you plenty of 50cal brass... Ill put a call in to my people for ya today.

 

[komishe]

I thought LaRue had that name taken already, but his is just the B.E.T.
You're safe.

If I still drank beer, I would NEED one of those. Very nice

 

[wburke2010]

I would be in a for a least one if not a few more.

[coast2coast]

I could use one of these. And maybe a couple more depending on price.

 

[mckenzie]

[Jered Joplin]

Jered,

I think you know some of the same folks I know. I sent a text today.

 

[automan217]

i would go for one of those
i know a few places to use it that would really piss off some liberal idiots

 

[Hammertime]

Count me in too, for 2 or 3.

 

[josephberry]

Growdy, who's drinking a wheat beer?

 

[OdellJym]

I'm in for a few...

 

[TXBRASS]

In for a couple as well...

 

[abizdafuzz]

I'm interested in a few as well, I like your cut-out better than the others I've seen or used.

 

[Ronin47]

Im down for one!

 

[clmayfield]

I would definitely be down for two, depending on price. I showed a coworker the other one that was for sale before Christmas and told him I was going to order him one, then the thread got closed, so I assume that deal was done.

 

[EL34]

Did you guys come up with enough brass, and bullets to do a run?

 

[LegioX]

Well Jered, I'll take a couple as well. They look perty nice! Just lemme know when and how much.

 

[Maxmin]

Ill buy 2.

 

[adam330]

Any word on if these will be for sale?

 

[Quicksilver]

put me down for 2.

 

[Loggers Inn]

Did we decide if these r gonna b made.. I'm up for 1-2 to use in the logger's inn!!!!

 

[Sean the Nailer]

Put me in for 3. I'm up here in Canada.

 

[Serbu50]

Hell I would do 1

 

[Aceshigh109]

I'll take one... ship out of the USA ?

 

[Ironman675]

put me down for two or three

 

[Serbu50]

Are you going to make these?? Be pretty neat..

 

[dm1779]

I'd be game for 2 of them

 

[blcouch]

Hard Top Intervention Tool.

I'd get one too.

 

[Loves2Spoon]

Private message sent!

 

[Slapchop]

I purchased several from the guy who sold them on hear 2-3 years ago. They still work excellent after repeated use and abuse. These look a bit sharper than the ones I have. Great conversation piece.

 

[Serbu50]

Guess he's not selling any!!

 

[HawkDriver]

If I had any kind of machining knowledge, I would have bought up the 1600lbs of brass that was for sale a while ago.

One kind SH member just sold me 50 pieces. I need to find a source for spent primers, and I shall try my hand at making a few.

 

[PRMAN45ACP]

Dibs on one!!

 

[Jered Joplin]

I have a source getting some brass for us. I'll keep you guys updated on her when we get it. We have a lot going on and this is just a fun little side project.

 

[SharpsNitro]

Very nice. Put me down for one if you end up making a run of them.
