I suppose you could fire it if you had really small hands and it's probably best to remove from ear before lighting the fuse.

This one goes in the jewelry box. It's not really made for shooting. I think I can make a smaller one that is built for firing though.

A couple more. They need more polish but my fat fingers are having trouble holding onto them. Bore is 3/32" on all and they should be OK for firing.
A toothpick handgonne for the gnomes among us and a pair of "ear bolt" gonnes for the industrial punk look.

Looks like another CALENDAR picture!
Are the 'ear bolts' brass or TiN plated?

That toothpick gonne is real imagination at work! Great looking one, and from the pic, it looks like you have test fired it already! BoomLover

Some of our local misfits have sub-Saharan ear lobe distending monstrosities that could accomodate a 3/4" bore.

Bolts are brass. And while my wife will wear almost anything as ear rings she says she won't stretch her lobes for these. I do know some kids that could easily wear these or larger.
