    Looking for "Nazi" brass

    I'm looking for some WWII brass with the Nazi eagle on the headstamp. I'm open to any calibers...

    I'm posting here, since this is where someone who has what I am looking for most likely will hang out...

    A while back I traded for a few 8mm Berdan primed cases with a 1938 headstamp and a Nazi symbol on it. Well, a few of my buddies saw them and now THEY want some for their military display boxes...

    Anyone have any they can sell or trade?

    PM me please.

    Thanks!

    I have some 8X56R that are 1938 but i am using them since I got some berdan primers. When I screw up the anvil i will save them for you.

    I have some 8x56R made in 1938 in original box with nazi symbols on the box clips and brass. Ten rounds on two clips for the styer m95's.

    Alvarez Kelly,
    I'd like to help ya out but I've only got one 8mm Mauser with the Nazi eagle on the brass and it's already in my bullet collection. I've got a friend with a few and I'll ask him if he'll part with a few. BC

    There's 6.5 mannlicher in a Nazi box on gunbroker, she did have it listed as Krag ammo, might try looking for 6.5 Dutch or Romanian since I told her of the error. It didn't get fixed: http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/Vie...Item=273829758

    I would think that the military surplus websites or military rifle websites would be more likely to have people with the sort of thing that you are looking for. Maybe try milsurp after dark or the surplus rifle forum, or the SKS boards or moisin nagant net or some place like that?

    Thanks. I'll look into it.

    I seem to find LOTS of loaded ammo, but I am just looking for some more brass...

    Wow, very nice offer, but I think postage would cost more than they might be worth.

    I am still looking though!

    1938 styer

    Kelly, Buckshot was buying 1938 Styer ammo by the box and he wasn't saving the brass. I kept one or two pieces because of the eagle and swastika stamp on the case. I am going to call him in a few minutes. I will ask him if it is still available and where he got it.

    Styer brass

    I talked to Buckshot last night and he told me he sent the fired brass with 1938 Nazi head stamp to a board member in Alaska. He also said he bought the ammo years ago when it was being imported in lage quanities. He didn't know if it was still available.

    About 5 or 6 years ago SOG was selling it for $50 per 250 rd case (wish I would have bought alot more). I'm down to my last case, but I think I have some empties laying around. It's just a shame to throw away good brass, but alas I haven't seen primers for these in years...
