Talk:Bolo shell

Notability

Well, I just found my way to this page after seeing someone talking about "a bolo shell", which I'd never heard of previously (But now I know). So here's one person who found this information useful =p --85.62.18.3 00:46, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

That's great. Unfortunately, useful is not equivalent to notable. Can you maybe clarify WHY you came here and HOW you ended up here? Maybe somewhere along the way we can find a source to help establish notability. Arthur 00:49, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

I think the fact that it is in several state constitutions would make it notable enough 69.92.144.190 23:59, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

That's in interesting direction to take. notability requires verifiability from a reliable source... do you know a couple of states in particular where it's listed? Or articles mentioning it? Arthur 00:01, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

Does anyone have a link to an actual picture of a bolo shell, or an advertisement for one? I'm sort of doubting whether they exist (at least in more than one-of-a-kind quantities); internet searches turn up laws banning them but never actual examples of them. Was it some sort of novelty round that was made once, or what was the situation? Dreadengineer (talk) 04:27, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

I found two unreliable ads for bolo shells. More than likely, you would not be able to buy them.

Merge

I recommend we merge this article into the Shotgun#Specialty ammunition article. Arthurrh (talk) 22:10, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
