Response from freedommunitions regarding a pistol ammo GB but gives you the climate at least
Hi there,

At this time our capacity won’t allow that size of purchase. We are limiting customers to 500 rounds per purchase at this time. We are working very hard to supply this demand. I apologize for the inconvenience, and we hope that we can help you in the future.

Thanks,
Hannah

I expect to see the same response from everyone. Demand is at an all time high. Even with the AWB being struck down people are buying like crazy.

Mind linking me to that thread in a PM? I heard there was some stuff on arfcom, just haven't seen it yet.

I will if i can find it, i hate their search function on that site, its so limited and doesnt search anything past 30 days.

EDIT: Found it: http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_3_16/60...31_13____.html

Perfect.

I could prob. add 5k to 10k at least on that. I was not paying attention and told my people late.

[black2002ls]

I could definitely add another 1k on top of my current order, if not more if we pick up a new vendor

Damn that's a bummer. I have cashers checks. Please let me know when I can pick them up. I also have 2 regular checks, please let me know if I can have those shredded.


Thanks, and thanks for trying.

I wish I had the extra money to cover the additional on that. .45 is excellent in this market for brass cased .223

Got it done.

Don't worry about it. I am going to look at it as an expensive lesson in how to run a group buy. I will be much more prepared to deal with the logistics if I decide to do another in the future.

I just saw this... HEY FYI for those who care. MAST TECHNOLOGIES is a scam company..

Back in 2007-8 Us State Dept bought 5 million rounds of 7.62x51 ammo for their miniguns in Colombia. I was a Armament tech in Colombia having to deal with the failures from MAST technologies ammo. the ammo was cheap but within a year we had blown nearly 500,000.00 worth of barrels, bolts and safing sectors for miniguns.. Nearly every week we would blow up parts on miniguns.. the Money they "saved" from MAST TECH ammo was being spent 2 times overs in parts....

Dyncorp (my Boss) fought tooth and nail with MAST and after 2 years was able to get them to pay for some damages. We stopped using the ammo after 8 months of getting it. State Dept ordered Lake City ammo and we stopped having problems.. they paid dearly to get the ammo in quantity and get a rush order but we stopped blowing shit up..

I will NEVER buy that companies bullshit ammo. Just as the OP stated problems, my coworkers and I saw the same poor Quality control and in the end it destroyed alot of miniguns.

I am just glad we pulled out before any major damage was done.
