9mm brass casings (what to do with them?)

MrFurfan · May 6, 2016, 01:30 AM

I recently came across a bunch of 9mm brass casings. They have never been used and are in mint condition. I was told that reloaders can put them to use instead of just scraping them and getting pennies for these casing when there is nothing wrong with them. Does anyone have any suggestions or is interested in them, please let me know. I have a few thousand and want to get rid if asap. Can anyone help me?

I have sold brass on gunbroker, but it is a chore to setup an account there, and for a one shot deal, probably not worth the time. you can post on craiglist, but I personally stay away from that. a lot of gunshops will buy or consign them.

realistically, 9mm brass is not worth a lot, but you should be able to shake out a bit more than scrap value.

I bought a thousand range brass last week for $25.00. Had to deprime and I clean with ss pins but virgin brass at cabellas was $89.00 a thousand. Don't like depriming that many but rainy days are good for something.

None of the shops in my area are interested. My best bet is to try reloaders it seems like so if anyone need them I have them for sale.

In a good place to market them, Try Facebook sporting goods groups or Craig's list. Offer them in lots of 250, and offer a discount for buying multiple lots. Scrap price is about a buck a pound? I'd offer them at a dime a round, at least take it or leave it. If it doesn't sell you can go back to best offer.

Just bought 6k worth of 9mm brass for 24 bucks per thousand that was from an indoor range and wet tumbled. I'd be interested in the brass if you want to sell it.
