Would it be sacrilegious if I were to make a set of windchimes out of Garand en bloc clips?
Maybe.
do what you want
although there are rare and collectable ones out there

Would probably be fine if OP used these.

THEY'RE CALLED MAGAZINES

Not if you used repros. That would actually be pretty cool. Add some brass to the chimes too.

Thanks friend, everywhere else I've only found people selling 1 or 2 WWII era ones for 20 bucks apiece.

Good idea! I'm currently noguns, but I have a friend who could probably get me some .30 brass.
That actually sounds like a great kraft project.

I like this idea.
Do it.

I actually have some clips from last time I shot the garand. And the bag I threw all my casings in never get thrown away

Well you tried. 1/10.
>>29455472
If they made that satisfying ping noise it'd be worth having a hun charge.
>>29455336
id rather him go full jap extermination mode but ok
>>29454930
That sounds pretty badass, go for it.

It's not so much sacrilege as it is tacky. What you're proposing is, like, tourist trap tier folk art, anon.
I shot all of my 30-06 the last time I shot my M1 and haven't shot it since like August, and I have like 80 enbloc clips sitting around, so I might actually do this. It'll be cool. My wife is all about yard art so this'll be my little part in her decorations.
