LeBaron had what I needed!

[Andy]

Not in the store of course.

I have given up on the store and went Mail Order. Got my CCI primers and other stuff to my door in two days and for a reasonable shipping cost, probably what I'd pay in vehicle operating costs.

No more store visits for me....

Have you checked with Higgenson?

Of course - they've been out of CCI primers for months.

Andy:

I went through that a few years back. Now I maintain a min. 500 primers for each of the CCI 200, 250 and 400.

Always call Le Baron and find out if they have that stuff in stock before going to the store. I hate to mail order and pay the extra for shipping primers.

By the way what is shipping cost for primers?

$11.00 for 2000 primers and a set of scope rings by Canpar to my front door in two days.

Canpar does not have a hazmat permit.

$11 is a decent price for shipping though

Perfect. That's their problem, not the buyer's.

Boy - this has gone places I never imagined.....

Higginsons is out of CCI primers (e.g. CCI 200 - Large Rifle) except for a few very specific ones that I don't need (e.g. CCI 450 - Small Rifle Magnum). I just got off the phone with them.

Canpar can ship primers - by road only and with certain restrictions. Primers are a special class of goods called a "Consumer Commodity" that can't be mailed using Canada Post, but can be shipped by approved carriers such as Canpar and DHL.

Me, I'd be more careful before I suggested that a member of the firearms community was breaking the law.

I see LeMorons have changed their mail order policy.

it used to be if there was a store in town, no mail order.

I don't know if that was ever a policy, a rumoured one for sure, but not one I have ever come up against. I'm a 20 minute drive from LeBaron in Ottawa and have been doing mail order for almost 10 years.

It was on their web site and in the catalogues.

You just gotta laugh when see you a thread title like that - especially with the exclamation point. Baron (SAIL) on Notre Dame in Montreal is another "special" place. Always feel like I'm interrupting when I'm in there.
