Actually I just vacuumed out my heating vents at my house, I've found all sorts of weird stuff in the vents... last week I found a .22LR.. I'm hoping to find a pistol to go with it next time.. LOL

"The bullet has been examined at a Metropolitan Police laboratory and details about it kept for future reference."
Next, we will perform an autopsy on an alien being.

Holy sh*t!!!! A .22 short???? In the street?
My wife does hate it, though, when they get sucked up in the vacuum cleaner where they have rolled off the dresser after I've emptied my pockets there.

Somebody tell me this is satire. No way is this actually news. And please tell me that he did not actually say that a .22 round could go off all my itself. Even if you dropped the round and it landed just right on the perfect pebble at the perfect angle, the bullet would hardly put an eye out.
I have .308 and .357 mag rounds rolling around in my glove box. They mysteriously, have never attacked me.

Someone should take a hammer and beat that bullet into submission, otherwise it might start flying around and hurt someone!!

"I wonder...if someone dumped a couple thousand of these from a 50 story buildings roof, into traffic - would any go off?"
Given that .22 are rimfire, I would venture to say yes.

So? Somebody stepped on it while at the range, it got stuck in the shoe sole indentations, later got dislodged in the street - surely it is not Guy Fox conspiracy.

I used to set up .22 rimfires and shoot at the with .22s to see if they would go off.

The bullet, of Swiss origin, was still in its brass casing, complete with enough gunpowder for it to fire itself. continued... Mr Khan said that if it had been struck hard enough or exposed to heat it could have gone off.

One of my less common sensed blessed friends though a 22 out the window of a moving car.
It did indeed go off.

Forget LMAO! I have tears streaming down my face. So true and yet so hillarious to think about. While they are huddling over it in awe, walk up behind them with an air filled paper bag.....POW!!!!

The .22 calibre short round bullet was found at the entrance of the 99p Stores in Walthamstow High Street on Wednesday morning, November 1.
A .22 short? Woe be upon Great Britain!
