Have to ask bud, when was this? I've been in the ammo buying business for a little over a couple of decades. I did not experience this. Maybe it was regional? Not denying what you're saying, just really curious. I only recently learned that smokers can buy cigarettes by the single, for what...

Mine was about $800 after taxes. Range time should be this weekend so we'll see. I'll take it with some other toys to see a difference verses other similar pistol caliber PDW's-types. That does seem like it may be a problem, legally morphing mine into an SBR vs. the...

A little thread resurrection, I just picked one of these up this week. What: It's as solid as anything else CZ/BRNO that you've come to expect, even if it is so much polymer, basically at about "German" levels of nice (forgive me Czech's, I would actually bet you guys taught ze Germans how...

Well considering there's a bit of competition out there in new semi-auto subgun variants, I think it's an encouraging sign that the Evo is the first one out the gate. Talking about the Sig MPX, the IWI Uzi Pro, the Kriss Vector 9mm and some others. This was the one I was most looking forward...

Picked up the Evo pistol today, no brace, just a metal sling loop in the rear. First one I've seen (didn't go to Shot) and to me it's everything I wanted, and actually not quite as big as I thought it would be. It is mostly polymer, but it doesn't feel at all flimsy. I'd pistol whip with...

You do want the correct ORM-D stamp on it and you do want to limit it to the max weight primarily if there is a problem w/ the shipment (lost, damaged). If/when the shipper finds that it wasn't designated correctly, any claim could be denied due to the this. If this is followed correctly then...

I ship ammo for a living. Places do get away with only an "ORM-D" stamp/sticker but I just went through this w/ UPS and it does actually need the designation "cartridges, small arms" (forgot, "small arms ammunition" is what I put in our freight shipments on the BOL). No other designation needs...

Actually it must be labeled "ORM-D, Small Arms Ammunition" in a certain format. Google this, it's a standard stamp/sticker that is required for ammo shipments. It's not actually hazmat like powder or bulk primers (no orange diamond, just the previously mentioned stamp). This also applies to...

You didn't ask what 1911 to get instead of the Colt and your post seemed to imply that maybe you don't have a "reasonable" i.e. sufficient ammo supply for the weapons you have now? If that's the case then a minimally sufficient ammo supply for what you have now makes the most sense. That, and...

I've been watching and living the ammo game for only about a fourteen years now. Learned early to buy in case quantity to get the best price per round, limited myself to primary, popular calibers, and tried to limit the number of calibers I was invested in (that one didn't work too well). I...

First off, I work for an online ammo site. I'm not here to advertise for us so I won't mention who I work for (I've been a member of this site for years and have been reading/lurking THR even longer, long before I went to work for my ammo site). That said, to address the OP's original post...

To address your question on the German DAG, whether it specifically is possibly junk ammo or not, your question is a valid one. There is actual junk ammo out there, especially when it comes to surplus, Indian and Pakistani readily come to mind. Also, if you have a system that can't safely...

CZ Kadet by far, original pistol or conversion. The only other would be a Beretta 87 lstandard, not target).

Might have missed it but in case it wasn't mentioned previously, the DAG and MEN are different German factories producing the same (or at least similar) stuff (and that corrosion mentioned earlier is probably from the paper boxes used to package the ammo, seen lot's of it in the MEN). This is...

Hgmike, to address your question from a couple days ago, you do realize that first the pending threat of the '08 election then the subsequent aftermath are what spiked demand in arms and ammo. This country saw an ammo demand and shortages it's probably never seen (country-wide shortages or...

Just a few things not mentioned or almost. A bit pricy but still an option are centerfire guns w/ 22 conversion kits like a CZ P01 (railed add Kadet kit, many on the boards think highly of this particular kit). Sig has their conv. kits for their 220 series (228, 226, 220). Ceiner and...

To address the OP's original question, it will depend on several factors. Basics are what calibers do you have or will have, the purpose or at least the possible purposes of your arms. Then prioritize what's most important and needing to stock first, what your low on, what deals aren't worth...

Not to be misunderstood as there is no such thing as a sporting "anything" within any founding documents (otherwise just a bad play on words on my part). Forgive me, I was only mockingly referencing "their" basic proclaimed rationale for doing what they do. As to supply and demand, I thought I...

Consider that all Chinese ammo is no more (ex. order I believe?) and the same can happen to all other foreign ammo (esp. Russian). And granted, the US manufacturers would gladdly pick up the slack, maybe even go the cheaper steel case route if all foreign ammo is no longer available. They...

Anyone have experience w/ the Ruger LCR yet or is it too early (besides Gunblast)?
