    Pietta's .36 cal. pocket pistol?

    Sheet Lead

    I have done the same thing!! Though I did sell most of it to a troll board maker down here on the coast, made some extra money on it too!. Mine was from an X-Ray room also. I had around #400lbs in 1 pound ingots. Took forever to melt down and get clean. I still have about 30 or so pounds left.
