Also found some Magtech 115 grain 9mm at Palmetto State Armory. About $15 per 50.Redneck_Buddha wrote:i know they are non-grata to a lot of you, but I don't care. CTD has Armscor 9mm target ammo in stock for $20 per box. Hope they actually do have it in stock.

Re: Where to Buy 9MM now?
Looks like the Magtech is $13.99 per 50 now, and they're in stock: http://palmettostatearmory.com/index.ph ... tegory/99/
I just bought a few boxes to go to the range this week. As much as I don't like paying what worked out to $.32/round with shipping, I don't like getting into my reserves at the bottom of my safe.

Re: Where to Buy 9MM now?
Just buyer beware regarding Palmetto State Armory, I've heard bad things about them. I've never ordered from them before but I do have a couple boxes of .32 that should be coming "eventually" when they get caught up I guess:

Re: Where to Buy 9MM now?
Wow...I saw some good feedback on other forums but didn't see this. Good thing it's a small order and I ordered more ammo from a place with a bit better reputation. Is it just me or is customer service an issue across the industry?knotquiteawake wrote:Just buyer beware regarding Palmetto State Armory, I've heard bad things about them.

Re: Where to Buy 9MM now?
I'm glad I started with a small order too. If things go well I might try a larger order. They had a good price on Gold Dots for my .32 so I gave it shot anyways.Redneck_Buddha wrote:Wow...I saw some good feedback on other forums but didn't see this.

Re: Where to Buy 9MM now?
I noticed that their ratings eroded as 2012 progressed. I guess they don't have the capacity to be a true national supplier.knotquiteawake wrote:I'm glad I started with a small order too.

Re: Where to Buy 9MM now?
I ordered a bunch from there last October and was really happy with the purchase - received it within about 3 days of placing the order. I just placed an order for a few boxes (before they sold out - they're all out now), and I'm not overly concerned about it, as long as I get it eventually.Just buyer beware regarding Palmetto State Armory, I've heard bad things about them.

Re: Where to Buy 9MM now?
I was off work today for illness and while at the WalMart picking up my prescriptions I was able to buy 3 boxes of Federal 9mm for the normal $11.95/box. The guy there said they only had a handful of boxes left because the last time they got a shipment of ammo was last monday and didn't know when to expect more.

Re: Where to Buy 9MM now?
I've ordered a lot from them in the past and never had an issue. They were responsive to my emails, shipping was fast, and I was a happy customer.Ark03 wrote:I ordered a bunch from there last October and was really happy with the purchase - received it within about 3 days of placing the order.

It's been a week for me. Do they notify you when it's shipped?Ericstac wrote:knotquiteawake wrote:Just buyer beware regarding Palmetto State Armory, I've heard bad things about them.

I thought CC merchant agreements prohibit charging a customer before the item is scheduled to ship.

Re: Where to Buy 9MM now?
This was always my impression as well but that was from an e-commerce class I took in College back in 2006. I have already been charged by them for the .32 i ordered and I have no shipping information. Two weeks and counting.Redneck_Buddha wrote:

It is technically legal, but it isn't good business!! Most companies only charge when they ship. It is against VISA and MasterCard's regulations for a merchant to bill their cards prior to shipping.
Contrary to what some sources indicate, the Fair Credit Billing Act does not address if it is legal for a company to charge you before shipping the product. Instead, it makes it illegal to not ship within advertised time period (or 30 days if no expected shipping date is mentioned in the agreement). If a merchant says "this item takes 90 days to ship", then they may bill right away and not have a legal problem if they ship before the 90 day window.

That is reeeeeaaaaalllly squirrely.
