30 caliber pens

[Harvey M. Taylor]

Is there a special pen kit for using 30 caliber shells? have access to a couple hundred, so thought I would make a few to sell. Any advice or tutorials out there? thanky, Max

I find they work best with 7mm tubes, so any 7mm tube kit.

Most people use the slimlines because it is cheap and if you use real bullets than most of the parts are not used anyway. I used Rick's tutorial as the foundation of my learning experience with these pens and that is the second link posted. There are rather easy to do and are good sellers. You can take it to the next level and use real bullets and also powdercoat them for a real durable finish.

Here is an example of mine.

PSI makes a kit now, so there is a simplier option
