Cartridges (the metal casing that houses the bullet, gunpowder, and primer) are not designed for reuse. The "hot brass" that is ejected from a pistol after firing is typically thrown away.
As it turns out, that doesn't have to be the case. Colt .45 Cufflinks are made from these discarded shells.

Frequently Asked Questions
Question: Can the bullet be reused?
Answer: Of course not, silly! The cufflink is made from a leftover portion of a spent cartridge. The bullet is long gone, the gunpowder is spent, and the primer has been used. These cufflinks aren't going to hurt a fly - unless you used the cufflink to crush it. Which would probably hurt the fly.
Question: But, but, but this has something to do with guns and guns are bad and you guys should be ashamed for promoting guns and violence.
Answer: We're not even going to go there. However, I think we can agree that guns exist and they will continue to exist for the foreseeable future. I think we can also agree that guns require ammunition. This disposable entity can now be upcycled into a unique fashion accessory, and that's a good thing in our book. They also look really cool.
Question: Do you have any other calibers?
Answer: Not at this time. They are only available in Colt .45.
Question: What other products do you have made from ammunition?
Answer: We're so glad we asked ourselves this question! Check out the .375 Caliber Bullet Pen!
