An FBI agent on Tucker’s program gave a possible scenario that sounds really goofy. When discussing a possible projectile, he stated the possibility of it being a shell casing from a former smaller round that had lodged in the chamber, and then was ejected from the barrel by the next round. The impossibility of such an occurrence is beyond belief to be given by a person familiar with firearms as a FBI agent.

Wasn't that Chipman that Biden nominated for the BATFE position that had lost his firearm? ....a M4?
...and those guys are required to fly "hot"?
Geezo! 😖

Sorry Bubba, I can not recall the name of the agent. My news supplier is Smart News, they keep articles up only a couple hours before new coverage is reported. The article has since been replaced and I can no longer recover it !

It was David Chipman.
Here's the story.
Good riddance.

Was the .45 Colt Silver Bullet of the Lone Ranger real Silver or a prop ?

[franchi20]

Was the Lone Ranger's gun chambered in.45? Or .44-40? Or something else?

I did a bit of "googling" and came up with this.
It doesn't say what caliber revolver the Lone Ranger character carried, but this replica is in .45 LC and purportedly is/was approved by Clayton Moore.

Since the Lone Ranger was presumably (?) a recovering Texas Ranger, I would think he would carry a .45 LC. (?)
Seems I remember the reason for the mask was scarring around his eyes from an injury. Again... (?)

As for the bullet material? I dunno?

Okay! The Lone Ranger was a TV crime/drama series. Everything was "make believe" as realistic as it seemed.
Those old black and white TV's required children of the 50's to use a LOT of imagination! LOL!

HIS BULLETS WERE PURE SILVER! 🤠!
Ask any kid of the 50's!
Sterling silver isn't pure silver. It's like 90%/95% silver!
Heck! That was THE Lone Ranger! Nothing but silver bullets were good enough for him! LOL!
