Guns and Ammo Thread

[almostgone]

Really? If I could buy ammo online in this state, I would've bought their whole stock.

I recently spent about $220 (with shipping) to buy 1000 Wolf brand small rifle primers off gunbroker. It's obscene how badly people are fvuking other people over this. A year ago, I could get 10,000 primers for that price and I would've never even looked at Wolf. I am totally out of large rifle and pistol primers and I have 100 small pistol primers left.

Did they stick you with the Hazmat fees, too? Some guys on G-broker are certified to ship Hazmat items and some just throw it in a box with a little newspaper and ship it on.

I don't recall any fees on top of that. The packaging looked like any other package you'd get through the mail.

Usually UPS/FedEx have a hazmat surcharge up to a certain amount/poundage.
I think UPS raised their Hazmat fee to $39 effective 12/27/2020, but some seller's occasionally pay part of the cost. I know Midway will run special deals on the fee and Graf & Son's does the same. Hopefully we'll eventually get some supplies!!
