I bought that exact ammo didn't clean my sks that night and checked it the next day and rust had started to form all over the gas piston
 
Aren't they STILL selling it as non-corrosive, years after it was confirmed as corrosive? I went into Lever Arms a few times back in 2011 or so. All the staff I met didn't seem to give a flying f*** whether I bought something or not. I'm surprised they're still in business.
 
The ammo I got was fairly accurate ,it was great for plinking cans in the bush.just have to give the rifle a good wipe down with g96 after and a few patches through the bore and all was good

yes they are...hmm, hardly ever go on their site, and they seem to have updated it since the last time I shopped there, it looks better but it's actually harder to navigate than I remember...

If they don't give a flying ####, business must be doing fine, lol...I only had to deal with lever arms a few times, as they have lots of stock SKS parts, and I got an extra bolt assembly, and trigger group for a project I haven't started yet, and I did have phone correspondence with them, and they were short and to the point...like they were in a hurry or busy or something, but I didn't mind, I prefer that over a drawn out chat when i'm doing business. The transaction was quick and smooth...i'm not surprised they're still in business, I never had any issues at all with them.

Likewise. Just bought another TT33 from them the other day. Positive experience all around. Easy on the phone. Right down to the point. No nonsense. Order was in in 5 minutes.
Pistol shipped within the week and on its way.
I would wager that most of the bad mouthing on this forum about them is from people just parroting others' opinions they have read on here without ever actually dealing with them.
Never personally had the slightest issue after dealing with them a couple times now.
As to the corrosive ammo thing. Really people? If someone sold you a pound of dog s**t and told you it was a pound of gold and they only wanted $5 for it, most people can read between the lines. Others buy it then get loud and mad because they believe what they want to believe then get upset because they are fools and ended up with the short straw, so it goes....

hmm, when I called in less than a year ago inquiring about different handguns when I first got my restricted I felt like I was wasting their time with my questions. The guy on the other end always seemed to be irritated when I asked anything and the conversation basically boiled down to "Are you gonna buy something or not?" So since I was wasting their time, I took my business elsewhere and had a very nice experience with reliable gun. As for your pound of s**t comment, IF THEY ADVERTISE IT AS NON-CORROSIVE THEN IT SHOULD BLOODY WELL BE NON-CORROSIVE. That's false advertising, plain and simple.
