Looking For Brass??

Carolina Coyote · April 01, 2013, 05:12:29 PM

Thanks Mr John, The bid on that 400,000 lbs right now is at $1,730,500.00, that is getting close to $5.00 a lb, I have not done any calculations and not sure how many pieces of Brass is in a pound but that appears that they plan to reload or clean and resale the Brass, pretty interesting. With all these Little Shops

around and all this Brass the Government has for sale make it difficult for me to understand what all the shortages are about , most of the big manufactures can probably punch out millions of rounds in a week, I think somebody is pulling our leg.

$1,730,500.00 Sold. I knew I should have bid $1,730,501. Hindsight is always 20/20.

I am sorry too John. I probably ran that up over a million dollars for you. Next time just let me know and I will stop bidding. I still have to pay for the 28 cement mixers that I had contracted to go make the pickup. Maybe I could just have them deliver it to you now.

cc I would like to have sent you more than just a few thousand. But, got a call from DHS and they are willing to buy all I have for three times what I paid for it. Told them to shove it, going to send it to cc. During the night we had several black helicopters hovering over our front field, armed agents fast roped down and confiscated all my brass. I was afraid for my life! Alas it's all gone.

Dang I though I had hit the Jackpot for some Brass, sorry you had to go thru the ordeal with the Black ops but I don't blame you I would have gave it all to them two, glad you are safe and Thanks for considering me.

I had not looked a prices for scrap Brass but was in a Gun Shop today and the guy told me that it over $7.00 a lb so the guys that bought the Brass made a good lick eithr way they want to go. cc

How many helos would it take to fly away with 400,000 lbs

Carolina Coyote · April 02, 2013, 05:50:50 PM

You will have to get Mr.John to answer that, but he might be in shock and can't remember.

Only one if it's big enough.

FinsnFur · April 02, 2013, 07:50:20 PM

A better question is "Aren't you glad that you are back?" As for your question the answer would have to be YES!

JohnP · April 02, 2013, 09:41:17 PM

Yes, this is a fun place and I'm glad I'm back.
