Yes, I get email notices from them on 5.56/.223 and 7.62x51 sales, and buy cases. They don’t charge shipping, either. Be sure to sign-up for email notification and you can get in on some sale lots. I’ve built-up my “ammo dump” supply, for 8 calibers, in the several hundred thousands of rounds, since late-2001, right after 9-11. Ammo Broker’s a good comparison source, too.
thanks, ch, I’ll check it out.
“My dear husband gave me a Moisin-Nagant (1920) sniper rifle for Valentine’s Day several years ago, because nothing says I love you like a sniper rifle!”
From what I’ve heard, that’s a lot of gun. What’s your opinion after shooting it?
If it’s her first gun (or first hand gun), one might consider giving her a revolver (rather than semi). Simplicity is often the best way anyone to start.
My wife packs a Kimber Compact .45 ACP with Crimson Trace. She shoots very well.
After 50+ years with me, she better be.
With the added benefit of no calories!

I know. I was thinking the same thing when I heard a Glenn Beck Sherries Berries commercial( of maybe it was Pajamagram or Vermont Teddy Bear) and he said something to the effect “firearms not the best Valentines gift choice.” I beg to differ. Throw in some ammo, a cleaning kit, some targets, maybe some lessons(for the novice) and most importantly some time at a nearby shooting range.
I love practical gifts.
Every once in a while I disagree with Beck. This would be one of those times. :)
Well, it was a paid commercial. And now that I think of it, I think he said fully auto or something, but I think that they get to write their own copy for some of these commercials.
Perfect V-day gift:
Kimber Sapphire Ultra II and a dozen roses with a card announcing “Guns and Roses” Day.

Without doubt the wittiest post of the day! Rotflol!
Funny, today I had my husband call the shooting range to make a date for Valentines Day. We’re beginners and we live in the commie land of NYC. Guess what, no ammo available. They’ve been waiting weeks for supply, now completely out. We have to call back Thursday. Scary shit.
Yes, it is.
