Anyone know of any Black Friday deals on ammo?

Dicks has 2 for 1 with a max of 6 total boxes, I'm sleeping in.

 

I though about getting up early but 2 for 1 puts the price a little less than BiMart.:bluelaugh:

 

Cabelas.com is having quite a bit of ammo on sale for the weekend, even including Corbon and Buffalo Bore! Still not reasonably priced, but stuff is available at least.........................elsullo

 

Not getting up early but I will be going to dicks. UMC is $15 a box for 230gr 45acp. Good price IMO

 

I've got Federal 550 22LR on sale from 2-3am for 9.99/box, but you have to come to my house and the deal is only valid for people wearing ski masks. PM me for the address. :bluelaugh::bluelaugh:

Oh I forgot to add. Please don't knock - just come in the doors open.

 

I can't say much for ammo, but Big 5 has M1 Garands going on sale for $599.00

 

I just read that too. You think they are Korean "parts guns" or what?

 

No such thing. They are Garands sold to korea used than sold back to the US. A parts gun is US parts used to reconstruct a US gun with a few non original parts i.e. recent galil, C93, PTR, all AKs. I do not believe the 83,000 korean garands and M1 carbines have come in yet.

 

What calibers?

 

I'll take 5 boxes!.... But something tells me I won't be leaving with them.aranoid:

 

Sorry, I misread the ad as the folks that wrote it intended, and the it was not 2 for 1 it was buy one get one for half price. I've got to improve my citical reading of sales ads.

I stopped in to get some targets before heading out the range and just had to get a savage mark2 in wood stock with a Bushnell scope for $139.99. We took it to the range right after buying it and found the scope to be out of focus at any range short of about 300 yards (perfect for a 22lr don't ya think?). The scope is a total waste but looks nice, yeah they must really care about their rep. This rifle didn't have accutrigger either and I asked if it did and they said yes, but with the trigger lock on it I couldn't tell. Oh, well it is pretty good anyway but picky on ammo compared to our Marlin 795 that will shoot anything but likes CCI minimags for consistency at 100 yards.

 

Thats a bummer about the scope and accu-trigger but still sounds like a pretty good deal. Bi-mart had the henry lever action .22's for $199, I was trying to figure out a way to come with extra cash all day but no such luck

 

Just to be annoying, and to let them know I noticed, I'm sending the scope back to Bushnell. However this moring I went back to Dicks with the scope and they, of course, couldn't do anything for me (no blame to them - it's a combo deal and Savage supplied this scope), but I did look through another of this same model scope and confirmed that they are cheap crap, made to look good and help sell a rifle without other sighting provisions. Considering my favorite rifles to shoot are our Mosins, I have no problem with triggers as I've been the exact opposite of 'spoiled'. The non accutrigger Savage lacks the feeling of having to move two gallons of borcht, in a rusty steel tin resting on concrete, out of the way to loose the pin.

 

On the way back home from my trip to Dicks, I examined the scope, unscrewed the short sun shade and looked at the objective lens and its mounting system. I pushed the objective lens inward not detecting any movement, and then reattached the sun shade, and it is now in focus! I managed to get the mark 2 with this POS scope, shooting mini mags into some 2 moi groups of 5 yesterday at 100 yards. I ordered a new scope for it today.

 

Bimart has 9mm Blazer Brass 115gr for $9.97. I'm a buyer anytime I see it for less than $10.

NW Armory has the aluminum cased stuff for $8.99. Since I was in the first 20 in the door this morning, I got a $10 gift certificate so got 100 rounds for $7.98. They also had bricks of Thunderbolt for $24.99 but I'm good for .22lr right now.

 

THIS would have been the new NWFA record necro-ressurection thread.... THREE DAYS shy of SIX YEARS.... just THREE DAYS shy, and you BLEW IT!!

 

Damn you, "similar thread" feature. Was wondering why I hadn't seen it before. Big L on my forehead now...

 

LMAO... borrow my sharpie?
