      Sad and Sickened at powder prices

      There are also a lot of places that don't sell stuff very fast and just haven't had to replace it recently. My prices change rapidly because we move products rapidly. $30 for W231 is a great price (that is actually below wholesale today), but I'd be amazed if the powder was made recently. It's...

      Small Pistol Primer .45 brass is annoying!

      We actually get people that request them. Small pistol primers are much more available and less expensive. The key is to buy them pre-sorted in large quantities and just keep them separated. For people that do small lots, it's probably not worth the time though.

      Berger 140 hybrid target

      We have them in stock, but they are new stock. Unfortunately, that means they are at 2024 prices. It looks like the other links posted are at last year's prices. Last year's retail price is this year's wholesale price...

      Greentown Gun Show Apr 20 & 21

      It's still a pretty new show, so I'm not sure what to expect. The first 2 shows were once a year. This will be the first time a gun show has been done in the spring at this location. Previously, we were only able to schedule them in the middle of summer, during the slow season. That being said...

      Best place to buy ammo

      We aren't really near Fort Wayne, but we stock .22 WRF at the store and at gun shows.

      Gun show loophole closing?

      This. Every question I've seen in this thread related to the application of the new rule is answered here.

      Primers

      They are just rebranded Unis Ginex primers. Sometimes they literally just put Cam Pro stickers on the Ginex boxes. I believe Prvi Partizan uses them, if I'm not mistaken.

      Primers

      Wow, that's less than what I pay for them at wholesale.

      Tipton Gun Show 4-6 and 4-7

      I'm not sure where to find brass. We do have some loaded ammo and dies. Ammo is expensive.

      Sad and Sickened at powder prices

      $69 for a pound of Unique is insane right now. We just sold out a couple days ago, but we were selling it for $51.41 + tax (which I still think is high). Yes, powder prices have gone up dramatically. Unfortunately (I really hope I'm wrong about this), I expect powder prices to at least double...

      Crown Point Gun Show

      Back again this weekend.

      Crown P:oint

      They don't have to do that. There were license plate readers and cameras installed all around the fairgrounds by the Lake County Sheriff's Department. They can do it from the comfort of an office building. They were made famous during "Operation Scarecrow".

      ATF Agent Shot

      ^^^ This. SWAT style raids are probably unnecessary about 90% of the time they are used. Many times they have the potential to make the situation much more dangerous. 50 or 60 years ago people would be appalled at the tactics used by law enforcement today. The failed war on drugs made the...

      Primers

      At that price, they don't need a limit.

      Indiana Constitutional Carry

      You guys are making me feel old. The federal background check system was implemented in 1998. I still remember the days of filling out a much more simple 4473 and just walking away. There was even a spot on the form where the dealer could put "known to me" and not put the ID. Dealers would put...

      Is the g19 obsolete

      Obsolete? It's not even that old. I still carry a P7M8, it's even older. Many people I know still carry 1911s. It doesn't matter what you're carrying as long as it is reliable and comfortable for you.

      Who uses solid brass 12ga shells, and for what?

      We sell them in 12 ga, 24 ga, 32 ga and 36 ga (.410) at the store. They are expensive, around $35 to $38 plus tax.

      Stout Field gun show

      The Indiana department of revenue actually goes to shows, including the 1500, and checks the vendors to be sure they are collecting Indiana sales tax (at least they used to back when I set up there). If they aren't collecting tax, they are happy to help you fill out the proper paperwork.

      Stout Field gun show

      There have been several different promotors at that venue over the last 40 years. The one doing it now is the same promotor that was doing it up until 2001, when the military cancelled all the shows after 9/11 for awhile. There was at least one other promotor during the post-9/11 era for a few...

      Greenfield Gun Show

      It's been the same promotor since it was in the armory about 20 years ago, then moved to the fairgrounds. I'm not sure what old guy you're referring to.
