My first REAL treasure while metal detecting! | Shelling in South Carolina's Hunting Island
Shelling in South Carolina is both challenging and rewarding! I explored Hunting Island State Park for shells and also picked up a permit to do some metal detecting on the beach in the park. Metal detecting can be a challenge in the south with a lot of areas being off limits due to lost artifacts from the Civil War. Hunting Island is a beautiful area and I had such a great day exploring here!

Great video, I love the razor clams! I recently took a vacation to Charleston and made it a point to visit Hunting Island. Can I just say how much I love that beach; it's so beautiful at sunrise. Just you, the sun, God, and waves!!! What more can we ask for right.

Thank you! And yes, much harder to find "whole" shells with the pounding surf!
The first time I visited Hunting Island I was blown away by the entrance & until I hit parking by the foliage. I have been on many beaches on the east & west coast, have never experienced driving thru what felt like a rainforest. Did you climb the lighthouse here? The view from the top was breathtaking literally & figurreitly.

It was beautiful there! I remember thinking.... Wow! I didn't climb the lighthouse, darn! Thanks for watching😊
That’s a .50 caliber round, not a shell. It’s from a Browning M2 which is one of the longest running continuous service weapons. It was was introduced into service around 1914-1917 and is still used today.

Wow, thank you for the education and the information. That is so helpful! Based on how my "round" looked, how old do you think it is?

@@TravelingTreasureFinder hard to tell honestly. They are issued by all branches of service currently and have been since WW1. They have a variant with a butterfly trigger for door gunners on aircraft. Navy fire the weapon from their ship decks. Army use it on all of their vehicles and as a secondary gun on tanks. All servicemen and women assigned to that weapon must train and qualify annually. I would probably guess 20-30 years old because it didn’t look that bad…especially for being exposed to salt water. It is an amazing weapon and my personal favorite. It was so well made, they’ve never had a reason to really improve it. I’ve got 14 years in service as a Major in the Army. Love this gun.

@@jonathanallison2247 Very cool. Thank you again for the information. I love all things military. Our son is a lieutenant in the Navy. He has been in since 2011, but it took him a bit longer since he enlisted first, served 2 years, then got picked up for the Naval Academy. The rest is history😊 I'm not sure why I didn't ask him about that round. He was even on the pistol/rifle team at the academy and loves shooting! Thank you for your service Major (and for helping this civilian mom figure things out)!
