Would this PRVI M193 be good to stockpile? I have read where it performs about like Q3131. Thoughts?

I try to order about 1K a month of stockpile stuff.  November's pick was the Privi M193 for me.  I like it a lot...

How do you all think it will perform in flesh? I have seen one gel test where it did pretty well, about like mil-spec.

General noise has been thumbs up.

I like it alot.  About 3400 rounds of it bought so far. I've shot about 1400 of it so far. It goes bang every time and seems to be as accurate as LC M193. I'll buy more. Only downside is cleaning the red primer sealant off your rifle's BCG, if you'd be worried about that. I'm not.

Thanks Bullseye! that was the info I needed to make a decision. Did the question ever get answered as to why the tests done previous to yours was so different?

Lake city is about $415 per 900, PRVI is about $360 per 1K.

Does anyone think the coming administration will pull out troops and flood the market with excess military spec ammo?

Comodities prices are dropping rapidly on a global scale, I think ammo will come down in 4-6 months, just like gasoline has done. Thoughts?

Yes, definitely. UNLESS we get some kind of ammo tax. There are 2 likely scenarios, one is that the gun grabbers push for new laws right away figuring the next election is 2 years away, everyone will forget by that time, or the few republicans left, along with the pro 2nd amendment democrats who didn't push for gun control the past 2 years, won't sign anything, and even the freedom hating politicians know it's a losing issue so they keep quiet on it, and go for other liberal crap like taking away my choice of healthcare, or gay marriage.

Smart move.

Better investment than your 401k.

+1, If Obama and the Libs are smart and leave us alone for awhile and he runs away from the Middle East I can see a drastic drop in ammo prices. But I'm not that kind of betting man, I'd rather pay potientially more now and have it then to need it and not have it while still having money that will be rapidly becoming worthless.
