I have a 5 gallon bucket full of .30-06 and .308 brass that needs a new home. I'm guessing there's a thousand + casings all in great condition for reloading. Also have some .32 Auto ammo new in boxes that I want to get rid of. Probably more to give away, just need to dig into the closet and search. Will add to the post with more later.

I don't have any .45 auto, but I do have about 200 rounds of .45 Long Colt I would like to sell (cheap). I'll let you know if I find any.

I have a CZ 7.65 that uses that same .32 ACP. I don't shoot it because of its inherently weak firing pin, but it's a back-up weapon to keep in the bookcase, just in case. What brand is the ammo, and what will it take to help you dispose of it?

I could take the .308 off your hands if nobody has claimed them yet. I'd also be interested in looking at that .45 LC brass.

I'll check on the .32 ammo brand and as for the .45 LC, they are hand loads (target loads) that I loaded last year. I sold the pistol and don't plan on buying another so just trying to make room in the new house. I'll get a count on how many there are if you're interested. They're good practice rounds. I still have the .308's and you are welcome to them.
Get back to you both later today.

I have some .45 ACP brass - I'll have to look and see how much - not sure where it all got stashed (er, lost). Will let you know.

Do you ever get over to the Plano Thursday night M&Gs?

Oops - found a couple of unshot boxes while looking for used ones! :doh:

Hey Danny...I have two boxes of CCI and two boxes of PMC and one partial box of Winchester - all 71 gr target loads. You can have them - no cost, we'll just have to figure out how to meet at some point. PM me and we'll figure it out.
And on further review, I looked through my brass and at some point in my life I was quasi organized and actually separated some of my brass by caliber. So the bucket full of what I thought was .308's is actually everything from 9mm to .270. Pick a caliber and there's at least 50 to a hundred or more of each. So....any takers?

Jay, I will be in Austin Oct. 10 - 12 on business. As the date gets closer I will contact you with cell phone number, etc.

I will be attending a meeting at the Radison located downtown by the bridge with all the bats. I think it's Capitol Street Bridge, or something like that.

Thanks,
Danny

How many and how much $ for the 45LC ?

Tom, If you aren't going to Austin before I do in October I can bring the .45LC back for you if you make arrangements.

I'm guessing 200 to 300. I'll get a rough count tonight and get back to you. No reasonable offer refused. Been kicking myself for selling mine. Oh well, live and learn....

Danny, I appreciate your offer and that would be helpful.

Jay,

I will be in Austin Monday evening, 10/09 and will be leaving Thursday afternoon. I will PM you my cell phone number.

Did you and Tom work out anything on the .45LC?

No, I never heard back from him. Shoot me your number and we can connect while you're here.

Jay, it was great meeting you, and thanks for the .32 rounds.

Tom (Hairsmith), Jay gave me the .45LC reloads to bring to you. Another excuse to get out of the house!

Likewise, glad they went to someone that could use them!
