Why do they keep all of their "defense" ammo behind the counter now?? Went in today, and after realizing I'd be standing around for 1/2 hour to 45 minutes for a box of ammo, I left. Who's stupid idea was this?? Went back home, got on the motorcycle and headed over to Scheels. All ammo is out in the open, ready to finger fucked by the general public. Same price, too. |

My guess would be its because of the area its in Its hard to make a profit if people are pocketing $40 worth of ammo and walking out |

Quoted: Which Sportsmans? My guess would be its because of the area its in Its hard to make a profit if people are pocketing $40 worth of ammo and walking out I would venture a guess that it's more likely people switching the contents of $10 ball with $50 tactical ammo and buying the ball. Then the person who buys the tactical ammo gets screwed as well. |

That is why I never purchase anything on the shelf that looks like the box has been opened, unless there is some kind of discount. |

He said it came down from the director of marketing probably trying to get people to buy name brand defensive stuff instead of aluminum case or zombie hunter nonsense |

I've read stories about people doing that with graphics cards from Best Buy. They put their old one in it and re-shrink wrap it and return it. |
