Where can I get 45 Auto Rim Brass

rick983 · March 31, 2010, 01:11 PM

I just picked up a beautiful S&W Model 1937 Brazilian revolver and wanted to load up some ammo and could not find a single source for the 45 Auto Rim brass except one fellow on GunBroker that had some really old Remington and he wanted a fortune. Starline still lists it as being made, but they're out. Any thoughts? Thanks.

Midwayusa shows out of stock on both brands, but expected in stock 4/12 or 4/16 depending on the choice.

My limited experience with ordering out of stock brass from them suggests that they may bump back the "expected" date several times before your order is filled. Still, it's better than nothing.

Use .45 acp and moon clips instead. Cheaper, easy to find, easier and faster to reload. I used to use AR cartidges, but I had troulbe finding them, and keeping track of them, so I just gave up. I have 4 pistols that take them.

Starline Brass says they'll make another run of it when there is sufficient backorder orders. Wow, that kinda leaves a guy hangin' don't it?
