ajr576 5 Posted May 14, 2021 Anybody in the Bergen County area (my range is Cherry Ridge/ willing to drive a bit) have some .38 special ammo that you'd like to trade for some .223/5.56 or sell? If so, please reach out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ajr576 5 Posted June 16, 2021 I also have a Burris MTAC 1-4 scope with a Weaver cantilever mount (both in excellent condition) that I'd be willing to trade for quality. 38 special ammo. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DirtyDigz 1,811 Posted June 17, 2021 I have a friend in Bloomfield who is looking to sell, not trade, .38sp ammo. Not sure if he's willing to travel or not. Let me know if you're interested and I'll put you in touch with him. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ajr576 5 Posted June 17, 2021 Thanks for reaching out. Bloomfield is only about 25 minutes away so yes, I'd be interested... and I can pay cash. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ajr576 5 Posted June 17, 2021 Thanks but still looking... I'm finding quality .38 online for around .70 per round shipped but hoping to do better locally. Let me know if you have some at a reasonable price. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brucin 923 Posted June 18, 2021 (edited) The Tula I am selling is copper jacketed and .54 cents a round. Edited June 18, 2021 by brucin spelling Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would have already bought it but unfortunately Tula uses a "copper washed steel jacket bullet"... the following is a quote from an online review of the Tula .38 special ammo... "The 130gr Tula .38 Special ammo I tested was a pretty standard Tula product: full metal jacket bullet, polymer-coated steel case, and a non-corrosive Boxer Primer. The bullet also attracted a magnet, indicating that it had a copper washed steel jacket. This is something to keep in mind before you buy any Tula products, as many ranges do not allow shooters to use steel jacketed bullets." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
