If I didn't already have all the AR mags I wanted I'd be all over that deal with the Pmags. I haven't bought any ammo since the 10 boxes of Corbon .45 ACP hollow points. It's a very rare occasion that I shoot anymore so I think I'm set for life on ammo.

By the way. Midway has P-Mags for just $7.79 each in a 10 pack for $77.99. One day only. The cheapest I've seen them yet.

https://www.midwayusa.com/product/448685/magpul-pmag-m2-moe-magazine-ar-15-223-remington-30-round-black-pack-of-10

Just ordered a 10-pack.
Today they were $79.99 (+ $9.19 shipping). That puts the price per mag at $9.00, so that's a good deal.

There is a locally owned shop within 25 miles of me that is a fairly big store for the area that still wants $20+ for Gen 2 PMags.......they are collecting dust on the racks too.

$10 back and a free T-shirt. Sounds like a good deal to me.

ammoman.com  has 1000 rds Fiochi for $219 including shipping.

A couple of weeks ago Ammunitiontogo.com had 115 grain brass ammo for $190

There are several places now that routinely have FMJ 9 MM in brass cased, boxer primed, reloadable brass under the $200.00 @ 1,000 mark.

I'm noticing that my In Box is getting bombarded on a daily basis from ammunition places. Who all are having big sales on ammo and magazines. Even Midway is having really good buys on this stuff. As are places like Sportsman's Guide, CDNN, and Cheaper Than Dirt. Even Cabela's has assorted shooting stuff marked way down in the store. These places are no doubt overstocked with ammo and magazines from the election, and are now discounting everything in order to move it.

All were betting heavily on Hillary winning, and the demand to go off the chart for these items. Now they're pretty much stuck with a lot of inventory that is going to take a long time to move at heavily discounted prices. People are no longer feeling any legislative pressure to run out and buy like they did for the last 8 years.

I'm seeing a marketing ploy of downsizing the containers.

"AMMO CAN of .56 only $74.95"

Trouble is the can only contains 210 rounds.  So they're 43 cents apiece.

I think we all have been seeing that as well.  350 22 LR in a reduced brick.  Plastic ammo cans that hold 300 rounds that make it look like times 3 is cheaper than 1000 rounds.

Dang dude...you were up early.  Are you on Eastern time?

The first thing I always do with all of these "deals", is divide the number of rounds into the price.
