    Where to sell WWII large brass case and bullet?

    Don't feel like dragging it around a gun show but might be good option. Ebay bounced it in about 20 minutes lol. Any good websites for this?
    It's a 37mm anti-tank round.

    I found somewhere that this round only was used for a year or two early in the war. Apparently the German tanks got stronger and this wasn't effective. Forgot what the step up size was, 45mm?

    Also, anyone know rough ballistics of this round? The projectile itself weighs over a pound, it's massive. Magnet sticks hard to it so maybe solid steel?

    I've got a 37mm round somewhere around here. Different projectile than yours, M55A1 practice round, large hollow cavity, steel bullet and case.
    Also found this Hi-Explosive M54 projo at a gunshow some time in the 90's. All that tip stuff unscrews, springs and pins inside. 9mm for comparison.

    No idea where to sell it online except maybe here.

    ETA: mine is the 145mm aircraft Cannon round. Yours is the 226mm AT round.

    The next anti-tank gun was the 57mm M1, a copy of the British 6 pounder. This was replaced with the 3" (76.2mm) anti-tank gun MS.
    The 37mm gun remained as the main armament of the Light Tank M3 and Light armored car M8 till the end of the war.
