ammo cheap shipping if your looking. - 03/18/24 01:11 PM

shipping deal ends 3/18 they still have it listed so it will probably switch tonight.
https://www.freedommunitions.com/
3.99 shipping on all ammo orders 200+

I thought about posting this when I saw it Friday but I was gone a lot of the weekend and forgot when I was home.
prices are good and it is hard to beat 3.99 shipping , every once in a while they run free shipping but about every holiday they run 3.99 or 5.99 shipping.

we mostly use the Re-man 9mm

have used the fmj 115 and 124gr
and the 124gr HP
the cheap HP that is not an intended for personal protection type hollow point (they have those and they cost more) it is for bowling pin shoots or to better splatter on steel and make less spall. they are what you would call "sport hollow points" not worth the couple extra cents unless your running plate racks , pins or something.
we found they sometimes catch on the front edge of a 9mm P-mag so those we used up in Glock mags where they were not an issue.
haven't found anything that the RN doesn't run in

when they run these shipping deals they get a little behind on shipping times so if you need it Friday it might not be here , but inside 10 business days is the norm to your door.

and Yes we already ordered so feel free to buy them out they will make more.

Their main facility is in Lewiston Idaho that is where everything ships from that I have seen.

We are equally bummed that we no longer get the cheap plentiful 5.45x39 and7.62x39 from Russia any more so it is a two way street.
also don't get the Vepper , Baikal , or any of the AK parts and variants we used to get.

the up side is with no Russian guns or ammo imports is that our US made AK industry has really taken off. The US might be making more AKs for the civilian market than Russia is making.
It also has prompted a few US ammo manufactures to start 5.45 and 7.62x39 lines to feed all those rifles.

AK and Com-block matches are getting to be a thing over here , where to play you have to run AK or Comblock rifle to compete.
registration opened Saturday at 1200 and by 1700 it was sold out with a wait list.

so Com-block gun matches sell out like a Taylor Swift concert.

the innovations they are coming up with to run AKs faster and smoother is very cool there is a company making a tune-able gas piston to make the AK run smoother with more ammo and cut bolt chatter for better accuracy.

I think it's because of the sanctions. When will all this end? When will our politicians be able to come to an agreement? When will ordinary people (hunters) stop suffering?

Scheels has name brand new 9mm, CCI Blazer brass, for $11.99 box, free shipping for much less than $200 threshhold.
House brand 5.56, made by Fiocchi, for 40cpr, free shipping.

I don't like the new normal for prices....

this dates back to 2014 Obama years pre Ukraine sanctions and we are told it became more of an agreement between governments we wouldn't send things to Russia and Russia wouldn't send stuff to us than an actual sanction on the Russian federation.

$3.99 shipping is essentially free these days.
Heck, many gun sellers on Gun Broker are charging $40-$50-$60 in shipping on a firearm.

I know and when you exceed 50 pounds they just send two boxes no additional charge.

the 124gr comes to 11.59 a box when you add the shipping and buy 1K rounds

even worse I own a license to that app , but if I change phones the only way to load it on the new phone is to download it from the apps store , how they make sure you don't download dangerous to your device software.

but since it is no longer on the apps store, no change phone and no get my $ back for not being able to use it.

I did hear someone wrote an almost identical replacement , I don't remember what it is called
