Hello forum,
I am looking for the address of a supplier of shell dummies for my Winchester 1893, preferably size 2-5/8. It is important that they want to ship them to the Netherlands, which is unfortunately not possible with every supplier (or via eBay). Thanks in advance for your response.

I am somewhat surprised that you cannot find 65 mm length 12-ga shells in Europe or the UK.  Have you tried contacting Eley – Components | ELEY (eleyhawkltd.com)

Sorry Bert, but no dummies to be found at Eley…

Their reply: “Thank you for your email unsure who Bert Hartman is we do sell the 12g Saluting Blanks but they are a 25mm case with an 8mm head size they are half charge black powder. We don’t sell a 65mm dummy shell.”

We keep looking…
