Black Friday 2018 deals

[Ggreen]

Sons of liberty gun works had/has a ridiculous good sale going. if ya know ya know. I think the best deals were from the smaller retailers I got free steel gongs with shipping, 30percent off a plate carrier from rht, stealthgear had 45 percent off with 2 holsters which was probably the best I bought in, lots of primary deals that are already in my safe, psa was meh other than a few door busters same with all the other big guys. This was definitely the year of the small shops for me.

I doubt dicks would go out of business if gun owners stopped shopping there, considering they sell baseball, tennis, golf, camping, fitness, fishing, basketball, archery and so much more, if gun owners stopped buying there, all they'd do is drop firearms.

but if someone has to explain a 1.7 million dollar drop in profit, that would wake them up!, cause let me tell you, if you have to explain it to someone else (ie in this case, a board of directors) why you missed your budgeted profit by 1.7 million dollars someone would pay hell trying to explain that figure, cause I see my boss trying to figure out ways to explain why we miss budget by 10 thousand dollars (and that's 10 grand in sales, NOT 10 grand in profit)

I think they would. They have been scrambling ever since they went anti 2a and jumped on the fudd wagon (shertghuns is all muh pappies ever needed, no whun needs ah eigh argh to guh critterin whuth) it's the fudd money that is keeping them floating right now, cause fishing gear, camo, and outdoor gear has stupid high profit margins and is generally what keeps the large retail sporting good stores going. I read a fun post about a guy who stops in, fills a cart with item from different aisles and after the gun counter tells him they don't sell ar's he just leaves the cart and walks out. This is a store that is actively seeking and paying to remove your rights, while saying "We are gun owners, we just believe in commun sense gun control"..... They not only stopped carrying AR's they pay a lobby interest money to get them banned, with money they

Like others have said, the sales were disappointing this year. It seems like the big guys didn’t even try.

The only purchases I made were a Galco holster from midway (40% off?) and a bunch of 357 Blue Bullets (15% off).

I may be the only one on this site stupid enough to not buy $0.02 22lr, but I just don’t shoot the stuff.

Some decent prices on police trade ammo in .40 S&W, for the 7 people who still own a pistol in that caliber.

Also Speer Gold Dot .45 ACP 50 round boxes for $19.99.

i just left dicks in evansville they have the 1600 round bulk pack federal 22 long rifle for 84.99, but they matched sportmans warehouses price of 59.99 plus the 20.00 rebate so 39.99 a case = .249 cents a round!
i called my dad after i left and told him about it, he said "get your a$$ back there and buy me 2 cases too!"
they had the 9mm 45 and 223 bulk packs too!

Got this from Brownell's and Palmetto State Armory the weekend before Thanksgiving. Both were $59.99 & free shipping so no need to buy from Dick's when other companies who like the 2A are selling it for that price. In case anyone was wondering Brownell's had it to me in 2 days and Palmetto State Armory took 8 days (just got that case delivered today).

Agreed, I got the 1600 round pack from MidwayUSA, and added something else I needed and used a $20 off coupon, in addition to filing for the rebate online.

Too many other places running good deals on ammo to bother with supporting DSG and their Anti 2A ways.

I got my order of 22 from classic firearms today after ordering at 5 am Friday.

PSA had free shipping on ammo that hit me right so I've got 3 boxes 50ct .357 silvertips, 10 boxes 20ct Hornady XTP .44spcl and 5 300ct .22lr CCI minimags on the way.

Not sure if it's a real Black Friday deal but 80% Lowers (In the old Fort Ben complex on the east side of Indy) is having a 20% off sale on uppers.

You might be waiting a while for that free shipping. I ordered 3 of the Blazer Brass Black Packs on 11/16 and have only received 2 of them so far. When I called PSA, they said that the 3rd one got lost between the warehouse and UPS. So they allegedly sent out another one that should be here today or tomorrow.

I also ordered a case of Winchester 9mm Nato on 11/22 and as of today the order was still "processing." I told them to cancel it and ordered the same thing from SG Ammo for about the same price with shipping. I know I'll get my SG Ammo order just fine, never a problem with them.

Pretty sure I'm done with Palmetto State Armory.

Just a PSA for those that care. With all the ammo purchases over the last week, Black Friday and Cyber Monday, if you care, please remember to count that bulk ammo. My purchases from Palmetto State Armory had a few rounds short. 1 .45acp out of 300 was missing... not a big deal. the 23 rounds of .223 missing out of 600 prompted me to put in a call. The Co. was nice and responsive offering me a refund at .29 cents per round or they could ship out 1 box of upgraded 5.56. I took the refund as I did not want them to incur additional shipping charges for something that was not really their fault.

SGAmmo gets all my ammo business. Great prices, Fast shipping, and consistently excellent service over the years.

Buying stuff on sale at Dick's is still buying from them. If it's on sale, it doesn't matter if you're buying ammo, tennis balls, or golf clubs. It all just inventory. They get no money from me.

Just posted some very recent news links in relation to Dicks Sporting Goods and gun owners over in that thread...

Thanks for the tip on SGammo. Was not on my radar screen but then I'm old and don't get out much.

My order from PSA never changed from pending my last couple times ordering.... and the order showed up at my house within a week.
