Short of opening a bottle with your teeth, we can't think of a more manly way to crack a cold one than with a demilitarized .50 caliber bullet casing…which is exactly what this is. Made in the good ole US of A out of military grade ammunition, this bottle opener is probably the only way most of us are ever going to handle a fist-sized .50 cal round, but we're ok with that.

 

Unfortunately they're out of stock at the moment but I plan on checking back often hoping to grab one of these.

Here you go, save yourself a few bucks and put it towards the real thing

$20 for that? really? A piece of brass with a notch cut in it? Pass.

Cool idea, but not necessary.

 

Anybody who can open a bottle with a bic lighter can open one with a larger rifle casing. I keep a spent 30-06 shell around for this purpose. The groove in the rim is actually very good for prying the metal cap away from the bottle without chipping glass like some dedicated bottle-openers do.

Bic lighter for me. 2 in 1; cig lighter and bottle opener

Wouldn't the brass get deformed?

I found a guy selling them online for $6.95 and bought a bunch as gifts. Opening a bottle with them is a real hassle,

a stick of gum and my teeth will do

Hahahaha I was thnking about getting one of them soI went back from to the e-bay page and last time I was there 8 of there were for sale and now they are sold out. Who wants to bet at least 7 of those are coming to NJ?

Why not get an emptied out .50 and make one yourself?
