Free market and all that.
They put something up on their facebook about how they, too, will not be selling prohibited items to LE.
How noble of them...

No choice -- LE can't afford them anymore.

Nothing like a 900% mark-up.

Funny, that's the comment I left them.
I think we are all aware of their true colors by now. I cringed when I heard a representative bring up their name when mentioning companies that were taking a stand. The only thing those people care about is making a buck.
Thanks for the reminder, just emailed them to stop mailing me catalogs "I'd rather have the room back in my mailbox, seeing as I have enough toilet paper"
You mean to tell my that market value for .223/5.56 isn't $1 per round? Whoops, I sure hope my neighbor doesn't wise up... [Coffee]

How quickly everyone forgets we have LGS's that have been charging $900+ for a few weeks. You're either outraged across the board or you're not. This selective outrage is BS.
Myself, like TV or radio i can change the channel.

I haven't been watching the prices real close because I knew it is all too high for me. This was sent to my email from weeks ago when I visited the CTD and requested to be notified when they were in stock. I don't remember what the price was. I'm pretty sure it wasn't $1 a rnd. So when I got this notice, I checked if anyone else had posted a price as this, didn't see it, so I posted it feeling it was so much higher than it was last I looked. I personally haven't seen this price before, but then again I wasn't watching as close as some. So for me it wasn't selective outrage, it's across the board. This just brought it out in the open for me.

I'm just hoping the manufacturers get caught up with production, then the market will adjust back to sanity.

I have seen ammo in the trading post with the same pricing.
That's what's it been selling for. I sold a good amount for that price. People are willing to pay, it isn't in stock and demand is high.

Good luck with that. They were barely catching up running full production per election. With the bans, unknown legislation to come, people hoarding, etc etc, the panic will continue. It took about 3 years for prices to come back to semi-same levels after the Obama 08 panic. Only to last long enough for them to go nuts when he got re-elected. I think it wll be. Minimum of 2 years before things get back to anything close to normal. Gun prices will come down sooner and they are starting to already, but ammo gets shot up, hoarders continue to feed the need and that keeps prices high.

The same ones posting how high prices are from an on line store with a deceptive name. Outraged about their pricing, but not a peep on some of the prices here (as S7 mentioned) and or LGS selling for the same price.
We all know prices are high (or do we) and with no end in sight for ammo availability loaded or as components. So why bitch about one & not the other?
It's current market value (CMV) either you pay for it or not.
People are "outraged'"over ammo prices. JUST WAIT, the closer we get to Sensible Gun laws here in CO the higher prices will be.
I say 1) 30 round AR/ AK / any gun magazine LOADED with ammo will be hitting the $50-75 price point, the closer to July 1st we get. Forget about black market prices.

Oh cool, you're a mind reader and know what other posters have forgotten. You bitching about other people bitching are about equal on the annoying scale.

No, dude, no. You want all their catalogs they will send.
If you soak them in water and then stack them in a shooting box, they are great to test ammo with.

heh, Midway is still selling ammo at sane prices, when they have it in 1k of mk262 for less than a $1 a round. I'll take that all day everyday.
Cheaper than dirt should be called more expensive that sh!t.
I get free market so I say fine let them f!ck their customer base for short term profit. Ill just remember them when the market turns and show them my hairy back side for this they raked their customers for short term cash.
Screw 'em. Sad thing is their just one of many giving their long standing customizes the shaft. Easier to list the ones doing right. My opinion, the ones below have been alright:
-Palmetto State Armory
-Hinterland Outfitters
-manventureoutpost.com
-Zander's
-Green Mountain Guns in lLakewood
-paradise sales in Colorado Springs
-Big R ranch and farm supplies

Our Low Price:
$99.97
Typo ? That would be a Cheaper Than Dirt price on 1K of 5.56..........
Apparently there are many folks paying their price, the ammo is already sold out.
I missed the price, what was it? And I think we all know that "Cheaper than Dirt" is only marketing for "Bend over and take it".

im glad 5.45 has only gone up to 188$ per 1000 if you're buying by the case but still that's annoying compared to a little over a year ago when us armory corps was selling 2160rd cases for 275 delivered
