Used to buy from them all the time, never again. Their shipping system was always stupid anyways... I'll spend my money elsewhere, deals are easy enough to find.

I didn't even know anybody still bought from CTD, but I did get a few good laughs back when Glenn Beck was shilling for them.
OP got -40% savings! |

In any case, buyers beware as CTD will squat on your money if they don't like the deal and cancel it later if you don't do it yourself. I asked Lori Conley if Lancer had gone out of business and she had nothing to say. |

I don't think they have a sustainable business and the ability to hang in this kind of anti-2a environment for much longer. If they are this desperate, their days must be numbered.

Scam Details CTD's customer affinity program is a complete scam. I know. I know. They price gouged people in 2013, but now that prices are low the market can be in the buyer's favor. Well, I found a good price on the clear Lancer's and CTD must not have liked that I spent over $99 to get free shipping and used my $40 off customer loyalty benefit that I earned for being a good customer. My $40 code is toast and Lori Conley, John Turner and Roberta Wilson are crickets. Screenshots and details at link. I am curious what other experiences people have had like this. CC? Contest the charge. Check? I would never write a check to those tools. I would not trust them not to steal the account number. |

Now that you know THIS about them....on top of all the other shit, perhaps you can find your "screamin' deals" elsewhere like most of the rest of us. |

At least CTD doesn’t make political contributions to statists or engage in super shady government contracts or stab gun owners in the front like...
S&W Springfield Armory Under Armor Colt Glock H&K Daniel Defense Dick’s Sporting Goods Kimber Benchmade Leatherman Yeti Sig Sauer Steyr Gander Mountain Troy
Gun owner purity test makes me LOL |

Yet you do business with them frequently enough as to be a part of their Customer Affinity program.
Now that you know THIS about them....on top of all the other shit, perhaps you can find your "screamin' deals" elsewhere like most of the rest of us. I think it is totally understandable for a large company to have complaints because that is life and the nature of big numbers. However, I do not find that CTD's approach to resolving what has to be a money-losing deal on these mags acceptable business. I am sharing my experience for other people who are new to CTD so that they can have that information before making a purchase decision with them. They made their decision and I am just reporting back to the community of firearms consumers that they are, in my estimation, a business that operates with whichever way the wind is blowing. |

The last thing I bought from them was some Greek 303 Brit ammo on clips. It was a one time deal where you basically got 1970s boxer primmed brass ammo for free if you bought the clips. I bought 4k. I wish they had that deal again.

There is NO SUCH THING as price gouging. It is a stupid Leftist term, like Gunshow loophole. I do not understand what your aim is.
