Vetted Online Retailers

[Pete F]

I went through the list on Reddit and three popped out at me as vendors that I have dealt with with good results.

LG-outdoors
SGAmmo
Sportsmansguide (membership benefits)

The price gouging they claim was more of a price increase due to supply and demand problem. Almost every vendor raised prices. I will shop at all three, especially SGAmmo.

Can never go wrong with Palmetto State Armory

I haven't ordered from PSA lately but a friend recently tried and had problems ordering ammo. Are they one of the vendors refusing to ship to Washington State?

This is a long list of companies blacklisted by r/gundeals for various reasons. A company can be legit but still worth avoiding.

This is very helpful! I did buy some things from Glock Store, Gritr (through Amazon), but it was eye opening to see some websites where I considered buying things from but ultimately did not follow through. Thank you for this!

I would not be surprised. Shield Arms refused to sell higher capacity mags to me without a law enforcement or military I.D.

I recently had them deny and order for the same reason.

Steer clear of FAST AMMO dot COM as they are crooks!

They have an ammo seek rating of 3 so I believe you. Assuming overpriced shipping. A lot of sites offer low per round pricing but $60+ shipping.

I've done business with many of the above vendors listed, and concur that they are great. I've gotten close to getting scammed, butt: I've dodged the bullets n' been lucky so far.

Thanks for the info!!!!

Sounds like Gunzonedeals went out of business. Bought several guns from them in the past before they raised their shipping price. Saved many hundreds by using them. Too bad.

locked & loaded, grab a gun, Bear Creek Armory, Optics Planet, Battlehawk Armory, Palmetto State Armory, Sharp Ammo, Icarus, Agency, SIG Sauer, and guns dot com are all ones I've had good dealings with in the last 6 months.

I only buy from Matt Foley.
