    Description

    This is a listing for a pen made from a genuine .50 caliber machine gun casing.  The wood portion of this pen was made from a piece of Tulipwood.
    The first picture shows the entire pen so you can see what they look like.  The last picture shows the back end of the pen, showing the fired primer of the .50 caliber machine gun casing.  The rest of the pictures show the wood of the pen from different angles so you can see the variation in the wood grain.
    The pen is just under six inches long with the writing tip retracted and the "bullet" end twists to extend or retract the writing tip. It takes Cross-style refills available at office supply stores. The "bullet" was turned on my lathe, then sanded to 600 grit, then finished with a sanding sealer then finally with a wood friction polish.
    This would be a great pen for a gun enthusiast or military member, or someone who just likes unique pens. Definitely a fun conversation piece!
    I left the brass casing natural to show the patina that will build on the casing but a bit of brass polish and they become very bright brass colored.
    I have 2 of these pens for sale.  This is the second one.
