In anyone's travels hunting for ammo lately, have you noticed any blanks on the shelf?
Could be a cautionary, yet harmless(you're not sending a round off into the sky), notice to would be jackasses that you really do mean business.
Clearly, I'd be appropriately armed as well.

Re: .38spl blanks
Bad idea.
You might just piss em off. Saw something like that in Mexico years ago. They beat the tar outta the guy.
A revolver is a limited capacity weapon and I wouldn't want to have even less capacity. And then there's the; are you sure that the blank is the one under the hammer. Did you just send a live round into the air? Now you have even less capacity and one of those is useless in a fight.
It's still discharging a firearm and since it didn't call for deadly force, if the cops get involved that is bad news.

Re: .38spl blanks
couldnt you just load up a piece of brass with a primer. Someone I know was loading magnum primers into empty cases when they were checking for light primer strikes. Loud as hell in the shed!!
In the heat of the moment I would think .. "I see a gun and it just went bang" and I wouldnt be wondering hmmmm that sounds a little off. I would be taking cover.
