Title: Seeking a Williams Bullet for Agar Coffee Mill Machine Gun
Post by: 3b2ginva on June 23, 2013, 11:22:22 PM

Hello.  I'm new to the forum so I hope I don't break any protocol.  I'm seeking a bullet labeled as a Williams Bullet for Agar Coffee Mill Machine Gun.  My Dad has a large bullet collection and hasn't yet found this one.  Does anyone have one for sale or able to provide any additional information?  Picture below.  Thank you

I think I may have sold you some bullets a couple years back for your Dad.  Bully for him! 

It is ok to post wants here which is why we have this section.  Posting sales is a little different as we have the commercial site and generally do it over there.

That is a rare bird you are after.  I have only seen a couple and don't own one, but I have the metal reusable cylinder they were fired out of along with the other slug pattern.

Good luck!

I have one in my collection that Nick has on consignment.  It might still be available.

pm - for details on contacting him if you need more information.

The link sent you to Civil War Bullets.  The one listed is on July 12.  I'm not sure how to link it.

Best to post the "Item number" which is located at the top right corner of the "Description Tab".  Then we'll know for sure which one you are referring to.

There may be a Williams cleaner on eBay, but I would be surprised if there was a legitimate Agar bullet of this type on ebay.  Its almost identical to the cleaner bullet, just a larger caliber.

Thanks Bryan.  We would never have found it in that category.  The nose profile is wrong for it to be an Agar as represented.  It is a common Williams Cleaner Type III.  Also, it has the nose cast sprue which the Agar bullet shown above doesn't have.
