That looks awesome brother. I've been looking fo a good wallet. $98 outa my range for right now. Maybe next payday.

How're the coins held in? Looks like an elastic strap. Problem is my coin is literally shot on three points on the edge. Two of the points are freaken sharp. They'll cut a hole in my damn pants.

Wasn't bitchin about your prices brother. Just commenting on my financials, in the words of Gunny Highway "Right now I couldn't disappear if it cost a quarter to sail around the world."

I've thought about grinding off the sharp edges, but it kind of takes some of the "character" away.

Nothing exciting. 4 guys, 4 M24s and a countdown from 3.

Nice. Curious, how far out? Also, were you behind the scope on one of them?

I did some poker chip shots against a local PD Swat team a couple years back. More fun than straight paper anyway.

Can't remember how far out, about 300-400 yds I think, not far.

I was one of the shooters. Don't know who missed. I think it's cool that the rounds were fired close enough together that the coin had no significant movement when 3 of the rounds arrived.

Timing like that is very hard to pull off.

Pretty cool product and a good story.
