Flexmoney Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Administrator Note: Our Forum Rules don't allow for selling on the main forum, only within the classified section (which also has some specific rules). I pulled a half-dozen posts that had turned this thread into a brass sales thread. If you are wondering about any of this, send me a PM. Sorry for the hassle, Kyle F.

gohuskers Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Gunbroker works, also the classifieds here, ar15.com, and freedom gunworks has roll sized brass for a good price also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CocoBolo Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Hey, lets buy from companies that support the Sport! How about Top Brass, I won a Brass Certificate at the Nationals so they support our sport. http://www.top-brass.us/ I bought 5,000 9 mm for my Major 9 gun with the Certificate, it was all good stuff! Happy New Year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike in CT Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Also check out Brassmanbrass.com I like the idea they carry brass and nickel plated, and you can buy single headstamp if you like. They will polish it for about $3 per thousand, not a bad deal. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duane Thomas Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Hang around the match afterward and familiarize yourself with the concept of "shooter as range vacuum". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ima45dv8 Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Hey, lets buy from companies that support the Sport! Yep. Or look for local shooters who pick up brass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can regularly buy 9mm polished for 2.5-3 cents each, shipped. Just browse forums, check local ranges. Cheap good brass is out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike in CT Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 DWFAN, Sounds like brass is readily available in your area, where I am, CT/NY border, public ranges are few and far between and do not allow you to pick up others brass. I have asked and they have deals with companies that buy the brass from them, where they go from there I do not know. If there are some reliable sites for 9mm nickel same headstamp please share, I would like to buy 3,000 or so for my next reloading run, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duane Thomas Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Why nickeled? It's notoriously less durable than plain brass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DWFAN Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Mike, PM sent on yellow brass. Nickle splits on me after 2 reloadings, so i dont actively search and buy it. Hope that helps. Jeremy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik S. Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 (edited) Hang around the match afterward and familiarize yourself with the concept of "shooter as range vacuum". While I like the idea of picking up brass after a match, if you do so, make SURE the match is 100% over. I've heard stories about trolls waiting under the bridge to pick up the brass from our club matches before they're over and it is frowned upon...UNLESS the match is over and targets/equipment is put away. Better yet, just wait till they all leave. One thing I LIKE about the club I'm starting to shoot with is that after each stage, someone helps pick up your brass for you while others help tape targets. Most reload, I think, so they know how nice it is when you've got several guys making sure you get your brass back. I guess that helps make up for lost brass matches elsewhere.

walsh Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 I had a less than satisfactory experience with TheBulletFarm when buying brass online. PM me for details. Walsh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBets Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Another vote for Gunbroker...I have been finding 9mm once fired and comes out to about 17 bucks a thou shipped to my door...hard to beat those prices Bets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
