Supply issues with cheap surplus 7.62x39 ?

TXplt · 06-28-2008, 08:52 PM

Was ordering some Wolf ammo tins and noticed they were placed on backorder.

Just a fluke, or is the supply for surplus getting tighter in general ?

I was told that folks are buying any and all military type ammo. I guess everyone is stocking up?

Same with the 7.62x54R heavy ball. The guy that takes them off the pallet says plenty left.

There isnt a supply issue. Just a price issue!

I love sportsmansguide.com. Just wish I had the money to keep up. lmao
I know some have said they've had issues with them, I've only had one, in regards to Illinois laws and firearms in regards to a pellet gun. Nothing I can really blame them for except for being lazy and not wanting to deal with the paper work for me. But other then that, never had any problems and they will take care of any problems with merchandise if it's something you didn't do to the item or if you didn't make the mistake when ordering.

Great place to get lots of stuff in my book...

I ordered a tiny holster for concealing my CZ 82 pistol. There shipping is to high ! This holster could of been sent U.S. mail but they sent it U.P.S. DA !!!

I highly reccomend the holster, it's in practicly every catalog.
It has a clip to carry inside the waist band or you can wear it on your belt.
It comes in 2 sizes.
The small one was the one I ordered. It also comes in Black or Brown color.
