Hi guys,
I'll soon be purchasing a Nagant 1895 revolver and plan to display it among various Soviet-era stuff I've collected over time. I would also like to display a few of the unique 7.62 Nagant rounds with it, however I'm a little hesitant about having live rounds next to a revolver on a shelf. There are no children in the house nor do any ever come, but it just doesn't strike me as a bright idea. I was wondering if anyone knew a method of making a cartridge safe without reloading equipment.
I imagine I can't exactly take a power drill to the primer and drill it out and dump the powder, would it be possible to perhaps drill a very small hole in the brass and then soak the entire round in...something to ruin the powder/primer?
Again, I've never done anything like this and it's largely just a "Can I do it" kind of question. Any and all input would be welcome.
