Ray;

I've had three Green Machines in 38, 9mm and 45acp. Of the three the 38 spl was the most user friendly. I loaded many thousands of rounds on them. They can be very quirky and require the user develop a feel for proper operation. The difficulty in developing the proper feel and subsequent customer complaints is, I believe, the reason RCBS discontinued making them. I added a case feeder and converted all of them to use primers in tubes instead of the original primer tray system. I long ago sold the 9mm and 45acp machines but occasionally still use the 38 spl machine.

If you buy or have a Green Machine and need parts I have a quite a few that I purchased years ago and will probably never need.

Hope this helps.

I don't own one and never used one, but did enjoy looking one over.
They were down right engenious.
