Annual all bowling pin match.

Post by VegasSMG on Thu Mar 18, 2010 11:42 pm

If it was full auto, it was good to go this month... Any full auto weapon was allowed. It wasn't pretty, (on my end), but boy was it fun!

Just joking with you alittle brother. I would imagine bowling alleys might sell a few. I would also google used bowling pins for sale.

Bowling alleys routinely dispose of used pins. Some have arrangements to sell them for exactly this type of use and others simply toss them in the trash. I've seen them at local gun shows ranging in price from $1.00 to $3.00 each. The hard plastic covers take a LOT of hits before they become too trashed to be useful.

Call you local bowling alley and ask what they do with their old pins. You may end up with more than you know what to do with!

Two bucks each isn't a bad price, but shipping will kill you...

Don't ever shoot boewling pins with soft lead cast bullers at 700-800 fps. Especially at close range. I was struck in the gonads by a flattened out bullet when fired at 10 feet.
