So are you guys saying that if you fire it straight up in the air and it falls to the ground it'll look like that?

yeppp.......by the time it falls to the ground it cools down and unless it lands on a very hard surface the shape won't get deformed..

Reckon it was Umit shooting wild asparagus out of season. Well you would be pretty wild if someone tried to shoot you for the pot.

Not an expert, but if I had to guess I would say it is an anti-aircraft bullet.
Certainly not something fired from a G3 or similar kind of weapon and certainly didn't hit anything. Even directly hitting the ground would deform a bullet.

What if it was fired against an aircraft or during a military exercise and just landed there (obviously missing the target)

How big was that bird?

[denizaksulu]

Nasty looking thing. Looks as if it's been fired. Be careful mate/matess.

Had it been fired it would've been a squashed little thing...

It has been fired, you can see the rifling marks on it. It did not hit anything to alter its shape.
