We moved some stuff form storage this past weekend while we were in Valdosta for my UTA weekend and I found an ammo can of mine that had some stuff in it including some 30mm Brass from a GAU-8A (Nose Cannon on A-10s).

Is there any interest in these? They can be made into shotglasses, pen holders, a ton of other things or polished up and used as a display/ conversation piece. I currently have 14 but can get more next month.

These are pretty big. They casing is as tall as a loaded 20mm round, and almost twice as tall as a .50 BMG. I've got one from when my dad worked on A-10s, and they make good conversation pieces if nothing else.
 
I'd be interested. How much would you like for a couple of them?

I figure everyone has already paid for them so if you cover shipping they're yours. I do ask that only 1 per person until I can get some more.

What are some rough dimensions on them? Height and diameter of opening mainly.

roughly 6 7/8" high, 1.725" at the base, 1.59" where the taper at the neck begins and the OD at the opening is 1.25"

Yeah, when they passed around the dummy 20mm round at Tech School, we were all impressed. Then they passed around the dummy 30mm round. It's HUGE!

I'll get some pics up soon and took one of it next to 7.62x51 (.308), .223, .357, .40, 9mm and .22 rounds
