Find on the Attic

[Lingen1]

Hello! Lived in the house for four years. In connection with installing a vapor barrier on an old attic hatch, I found these in the insulation.
Does anyone know what it is? At first, I thought they were old bullets for hunting and loading (I know the gentleman who lived here before used to hunt) but they are marked with hilti on the back, which makes me curious.
About 10mm long and with a diameter of about 7mm.

Thanks!
Can they be dropped off at recycling or do they need to go to the police?

Don't go anywhere, call the police and they will come and pick it up, that's how it was for me when I had some explosive materials.

Protte

What do they look like on newer nail guns? Wondering if they might still be useful in some way.......Prescribed now but such shots were really fun to poke loose and lay in a row on the railway tracks..........

Thank you!
Can they be dropped off at the recycling center or do they need to go to the police?

One can try selling or giving them away, I think there are forum members who have such nail guns.

When I was a little kid in the late sixties, we found those on construction sites.
It was fun to make them explode by hitting them with a rock.
It's a wonder I still have all my fingers 😎

Standard shots for Hilti Gunnebo nail guns. I recall they were color-coded red, green, yellow, black, etc., as the color indicated the strength. I had a TE17 myself, I think it was called that?
