Price jump on 7.62x39

[bill gass]

If you guys are so upset about such a minor increase, wait until the supply of surplus in Europe dries up completely. I can't believe people are willing to pay $1/round for surplus 303Brit.

The price of MFS will be the normal price per round, sooner than later.

I'm sorry for the people that have to scrimp and save to buy a crate of surplus ammo. It isn't going to get cheaper.

If you compare the prices of surplus 7.62x39 in Canada to the US, after taxes and shipping, the prices are similar. I wish we had the availability to other cartridges like they do.

The .303 is a farce i was able to pick up 20rnd surplus for 14.00 at a gun show.Needless to say that vendor got all my money.

You don't get upset at a 19% price increase in a good you are buying? Especially one caused by a pencil necked bureaucrat?

If you paid $225/crate your a moron and just took it in the ass without lube.

Everyone knows you can get a crate ANYWHERE for under $200 all in.

Nice. And how old are you?

I just bought some at LeBaron's today. They all had those labels. I only bought some 10 packs but the case was going for 2 and change plus tax.

218 +tax to be exact, unless it's gone up more lately.

That's it. Thanks. And apparently that is on special.

Le Baron still has the crates at about $190 I believe so, or 10 for $2.54. No cardboard box there, but the stripper clips are packed in that new label plastic packaging.

I guess the importer / distributor is the one making all the cash on this now.
They must have figured out how popular this round is now.

Which Lebaron was that?

 

[The_Sicilian]

Not Mississauga. They are $218 there as discussed above.

 

[fiddler]

Milarm still has it for $195 for 1120 rounds. You get a better deal when you buy your SKS from them.


If you have not stocked up, there is no time like the present. It will not get cheaper.

Boy, sure is a good thing you folks aren't into shooting premium components for target and hunting, then we would hear it.

Just a little tid-bit when folks start complaining about price increases, that ammo has been inexpensive for a very long time.Have you been making the same wage for that same amount of time???

The retailers are probably doing their best to keep costs down for the consumer in ensure repeat business. Things go up , it's a fact of life and society, inflation is everywhere. You want things to be cheap, would you work for the same wage for 5, 10 15 years with no increase?

$0.20 about to pull the trigger, no so bad.
