The Defense Logistics Agency changed the policy on small arms brass cases again. It would now appear we are back to the original place. That is, the public can once again purchase expended brass from the Department of Defense without having to render it useless.
In response to several of my questions, Government Liquidation sent me the following response:
Thank you for your e-mail. Government Liquidation has received an updated notification from the Defense Logistics Agency with regard to expended munitions. Effective immediately any expended munitions 50 caliber (12.7mm) or smaller can be released without mutilation. This includes expended cartridges and links. All other expended munitions larger than 50 caliber including grenade fuses and flare canisters must still be mutilated.
We appreciate your attention in this matter.
Sincerely,
Customer Service Management
