Some of you guys need to put some brass on TMA [Archive]

Alright, I know some of you guys have more brass than you could ever use, so let's see some of it on TMA. It wouldn't hurt my feelings to see some .38 Special brass, that's for sure. Lot's of new guys need help getting enough brass to practice reloading, and don't we all want to promote reloading? I have seen pictures posted of piles of brass the size of a Chevy van, so let's spread the wealth a bit. After all, it will also help Slick, and we all want that too. Be the first to put up some brass and I will personally cook you dinner of lip smacking BBQ at my house whenever you get there. For real! Ready, set, go!

Alright from what I hear, sleeping about 20-22 hours a day, I won't be home until the end of the month to see him.

I have 36 hours at home between MI and GA, won't be home again until Thanksgiving, I'm going to stop by and see him.

Thanks for asking, is your father well?

Looks like he will be having another surgery in the coming weeks, probably in Chicago this time.

I'm unloading my recent 9mm score. I know it's not 38 Special, but it'll produce the same velocity from a higher capacity gun with less case volume.

I would bid a hunnert and one, but I already bid the deed to the ranch on the .38 brass. I may bid slightly less than a hunnert in case you change your mind, JJB.

creophus

09-16-2008, 08:44 PM

I started going through the buckets of brass that I have. Got some very rough numbers after going through the first bucket:

44mag ~30 pcs
45colt ~30 pcs
30-30 ~30 pcs
38spl ~100+ pcs

Anybody interested if I put this up on TMA? The counts should go up soon as I sort the other bucket.

I do have some excess in my brass bins, I'll scrounge through. Don't know if anyone would want it but I have a couple gallons of .40 and could probably part with maybe a gallon of 9MM. (yeah, I'm aware that sounds strange, guess I'll have to figure out how many in a gallon zip-loc)

OK just put up 2 500rd batches of 38 special. I am going to put 1000rds of 45 up but would you prefer 500rd batches or a 1000rd batch ? I have them seperated out by headstamp too.

No, I got it all screwed up. I thought they would post right away and it didnt so I did another listing and then when they both popped up I deleted one. The one auction has the quantity of two I am guessing the two highest bidders get one each. Sorry for the mix up.
Wow, that is a little confusing. I guess we will get it all figured out. So it looks like I'm still in since hammer and I have the only bids so far.
