Quote HistoryQuoted: I'd like to see the warehouse where all those Get II's that they've been trying to give away for the last two years are stored. I toured the ammo plant/warehouse back in Feb when it was being set up. These were all magpul mags:   Plenty of room for more:  |

Just looked at their black Friday deals. Complete Gen3 PA10 rifle 18in stainless barrel with a Geiselle SSA-E trigger for only 949?

They own most of the manufacturing chain so there are not a bunch of contractors all adding in their profit margin to get to a final product.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Because we are naive enough to think "places" that buy PMAGs by the thousand get the same deal as those who buy them by the container. If the Magpul people are not buying golf trips for the McCallums, the world is broken. I would love to see what their blanket PO to Magpul looks like.

If they make a dollar on every item that leaves their warehouse, they're Scrooge McDuck rich.

Always need more pmags. If nothing else good trade fodder for the boog. Trade one for a walking liberty or a beeg when shtf.

Quote HistoryQuoted: And yes, I just bought 1 of the deals. Wanted an extra BCG to have around. I needed more Pmags like I need a hole in the head though. So basically you need another hole in your head. There's no such thing as too many magazines.....EVER. I ordered 10 of the metal ones from the recent thread, then I ordered 10 Pmags from PSA (from the same thread). And I'm thinking of ordering more. And at some point I need to start ordering more ammo, too. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: After I die one day and there is another weapons ban, my kids are going to thank me when they open random boxes in my basement and find endless Pmags still in the wrapper. My kids all have ARs and lots of mags, they will have to fight over the Barrett. I told them the first one to graduate Ranger school gets it upon graduation. So far no takers. |

Brilliant marketing.
Most people will never shoot enough to need a spare BCG. But toss in some no frill PMags that most won't buy either (why G2, when you can get G3?) and BAM! they can't ship them fast enough. It really is a brilliant way to market to a niche group. |

Last I heard it was 7 full tractor trailers are delivered to UPS daily (where they sit on the lot until UPS scans them in the system, hence the "slow" shipping.) |
