As title says, flat rate shipping on everything, so if you’re really desperate and need that ammo, here’s your chance at getting it shipped for only $4.95.

My guess is their Flash Sale a week or two ago didn’t go to well and people smartened up to their ‘increased’ tactics when things went crazy.

Yep i got that email. While their prices are good they are still basically at the same or above where others are.
The one good thing this points out though is there is finally some downward pressure on prices starting to creep in.

Just in the last week or two starting to see prices for 9mm slip at or under $600 a case on line. Others seem to be slipping a little as well. Even on GunJoker the prices silly people are paying are coming down. Those who are trying to scalp are not getting any bids which is nice to finally see.

that means there is hope that maybe sometime soon prices will continue to moderate a little at a time to a slightly more reasonable level.
Note that even here the prices for 9mm that are set at .60 a round are sitting. those used to be gone in a flash not all that long ago.

Just for S&Gs I threw a box each of .357SIG and .40S&W in my cart, with tax and shipping I'm still almost at $100. I'll just fire up the reloading press this weekend.

Their prices on 9mm are disgusting. I can still buy it for less than $30/box in Spokane if I poke around.

Agreed on all points. I am personally happy seeing ammo getting multiple bumps in the market place due to buyer exhaustion. It does upset me to see outright flipper price gouging especially when it comes to Herters ammo. A Cabela’s employee told me that all the flippers line up everyday the ammo gets delivered and buy the 5 or 8 box limits multiple times. They pay, head to their trucks to unload, change a cap or jacket and come right back in to buy the limit again.

A fellow at Sportsman told me that some guy was buying up the max limit of everything and when he was asked what was he reloading, the flipper shrugged his shoulders and walked away.

Capitalism/free markets is a great thing, but when these types of people do what they do, it just sucks.

Freedom munitions and lax ammo used to sell that exact same ammo they manufacture at a fraction of the current prices. So in my mind they are no different than CTD and PSA’s of the gun world.

Old guy rant over…

I actually drove by their factory in Lewiston Idaho today. I was hoping they would have a retail store there to save on shipping etc. no such luck, online only.

How do you like that 357SIG?
I shot one at the range 2 years ago on a Glock frame (Yes, I have sinned, forgive me Lord for shooting a pistol made from a recycled water bottle). I really liked that cartridge.

It's a great round. And even better defensive round.
Also easier to reload as it a bottle neck case.
Best yet the 40 cal guns runs it all you need is quick barrel swap. 40 mags run 357 sig so no need for special mags as well.
Have an fns 40 i got the after market 357 for. Please to shoot!
