how bad do you want to keep them? only one way to find out.

Could you UPS/fedex them over here. you can send them to me and I can give you the box when you get here.

I think it's fine in checked luggage (since even real guns and real ammo is allowed in checked luggage).

Im not sure I want to go thru that much trouble for a dozen of dummy rounds.
Also since they are that kind of dummy rounds ...

It's like having real ammo shell casing.And under French law shell casing is the same as live ammo, and 9mm ammo is classified as "weapon of war" so those dummy rounds could be like carrying a full-auto AK in my bag.

I just have to make sure shell casings are not legally considered ammo no matter how I bring them into the country.

It might sound silly but since you could use those dummy rounds to make real ammo it could be considered live ammo.

You can ship live ammo through the mail in the states

I know.

It's why here the police carried .357 Magnum revolvers for a while because they couldn't carry 9mm pistols since it's a "war caliber".

When they finally got a pistol in 9mm (in like 2005) all the journalists talked about the police switching for more powerful "weapons of war".

More powerful?

They should've switched to Desert Eagles chambered in .357 Magnum then

I know.
My concern is crossing the border with it (either by mail or in my bags).

But shell casings and dummy rounds are not live ammo under US laws right?

Nope. Honestly you'd pry have better luck through the mail. Customs at an airport might be staffed by morons
