    FOC has always been a good place for me to buy stuff, both online and in person.

    Curious - what ammo did you get?

    I am shocked! I always find that their prices are usually higher then everyone else.

    I am also curious as to what you found that would appear to be best price. I know they had one of the best selections of tactical and competition firearms and equipment. I stopped shopping there after I saw the racist video they made to disparage Tenda, so I haven't been keeping track of their inventory and selection.

    Typically for firearms I would definitely agree with you. But occasionally for ammo they have some great deals, although most are limited time. Just have to keep checking the website.

    “Cleaned out” has such a negative connotation. I would prefer “I contributed to the exuberance of the Canadian economy by providing FOC an immediate injection of sales revenue in a mutually beneficial product relocation relationship in which their recently price-reduced Winchester ammunition found a new home”

    Well said, as usual.

    I may just be a little bitter because I didn’t act fast enough lol. It seems rare to find brass .223/5.56 for <$0.70 each, especially in 20pk without buying in bulk. I’ve picked up some various brands and usually seem to get around $0.67-0.75 each if there’s a sale or bulk quantity box, but the premium brands (Sako, Hornady, etc.) seem to be in the $1.00-1.50 range.

    You could always be less of a purist .it’s easy to get once used (still crimped) 5.56 / .223 brass on the E/E for 10 cents a pop at most .or just go to the range after the RCMP have a training day.

    Just made a sizeable purchase from FOC. They are always great to deal with.
