haven't seen a good deal on lucky gunner in about 3 months


Ive got a few receipts for a few thousand rounds of 22 ammo for sub 7 CPR within the last 60 days...

But like I said, I pulled out about 45 days ago so I dont know.... I do know that those suckers were QUICK with the ship and it normally left out the next day and shipping from Atlanta to Orlando usually resulted in a 2-3 day deliver time from the day that I placed the order.

If they went whacko on the prices for the services they provide and the lack of availability...cant say I blame them.

I mean, think about it...if they were selling 20k rounds of ammo a day for X% profit and all of sudden they cant get but 5k rounds per day....should they continue to sell for X% profit and be forced to close their doors because they cant bring in enough daily funds (because of the lack of inventory they can get) or should they be able to mark it up to X% to equal the amount of income that they need to stay afloat through this shortage???

At this point its no longer capitalism, its price gouging.

That box of ammo was $10 per Sandy Hook. When it comes in stock at places like SG, Cabelas, and Midway, it is $15 now. Cheaper than shite wants $70. LOL


When you were buying and reselling stuff a few months, did you hold yourself to a 50% markup?

Should we dig up your old posts to see if you bragged about how much you sold the stuff you scarfed at Academy that morning for?

I will say it.... I damn sure did it... thats why I cant hate on them too much. Most of the people in the "ammo thread" are flippers and will take whatever the market gives them.

CTD is a company that has decided to put the money in their pockets instead of passing it on to flippers and allowing them to profit off of it.

Look...I dont like the situation and the high prices but CPD didnt create it and they damn sure shouldnt operate by lesser standards than the flippers....

Im like everyone else...I want to see ammo at a reasonable price but it is what it is and until people dont pay those prices, dont expect it to change.
