Macifej10.75mm x 68 Mauser Brass
Have 60 rounds unfired Bertram Brass and possibly the original boxes. If anyone shoots the old Mauser and wants the brass I'll trade for rocks or beads or something interesting.
I'll offer a bag of Texas Bar-B-Que dry rub,(Good Company), and a Bottle of Mombo's Michelada sauce (para cerveza).

Ah, Jeffe!
How can you spoil this rocks and beads barter with talk of Money?

Would a bottle of Glenmorangie port finish scotch count as a bead or interesting bit?
I'm serious.

Just to protect the prospective new owner of that Whisky, perhaps you should send it to me for testing prior to delivery.

MacifejGenerous offers gentlemen. I'm digging out the brass and will put up a photo here shortly.
I should probably mention that the bottle still has the scotch in it.

MacifejHere be the goods mate's!!

MacifejGreen paper is out of the question. This here is a good old fashion medieval barter. I'll take whiskey but prefer the Irish Single Malt variety.
Better yet! I'll gladly take one bottle of RatzePutz, unopened of course, in trade for the lot of Mauser Brass.
I surely don't have a bottle of that lying around - but the 58% volume part of the tag looks interesting. Wouldn't need but a small bottle for a whole party!
If you want to barter the whiskey for the brass, send me a PM.

MacifejPfeifer,
Don't need any brass unless you happen to have any 8 x 50R Hungarian or 20mm M103.
I have some .45-70 brass and loaded ammo I need to get rid of too.

Nope don't have any of that. I did see some nice 8x57 JR go through ePay last week however for a mere pittance.
Feeling like I'm climbing a greased pole here... about the only thing I have in any quantity now are promises from my kids and zucchini!

My 10.75 will, hopefully, be done in September

Two years in the making. I have only two boxes of brass, so tell me what you want for it, bullets, brass, $, whiskey, what ever.

MacifejNo legal tender accepted here amigos!
"Welcome to BarterTown"Didn't Tina Turner say that?!?!?
The brass is packed up and ready to ship tom. am.
The high offer so far is a Bottle of 12 Y.O. Port finished Scotch.

tip burnsBeads?
I got beads! I make beads...I melt the glass, make each bead one at a time and then create one of a kind pretties with them.
Not sure how it would look on you <G> but since my DH likes your brass I thought I'd up the ante a bit.
So I offer my latest creation: Coffee & Cream.
Make with my handmade lampwork beads along with mother of pearl beads, Swarovksi Crystals and all Sterling Silver components.
OR
my Camo set made with Onyx beads, Swarovski crystals and all SS components.
Scotch won't last but this will be a gift that keeps on giving!
Thanks for your consideration.

tip burnsHi Rusty! Thank You!

Hi Mike! Well a girl has gotta do what a girl has gotta do!

16 July 2007, 23:05
Macifej Ok ladies and gentlemen! The brass went to Todd from up north with his early and strong offer of one bottle of Glenmorangie port finish scotch.

Dona - I'll PM regarding $$$ item number 2 which my wife wants.
Gee there go my solo trips over to Tip's place to visit. Now it's going to be Peggy asking, "Hey, let's go see what Dona has new?"
