They got some sweet deals on ammo and accessories and want to know if anyone has had any trouble with this vendor?

100 rnds of 7.62x39 for $20?

20 rnds of 7.62x54 for $5?

I was actually thinking of ordering a Sig P225 from them...I've talked to them by phone twice and they were very helpful.

prices are good, but the shipping costs, so the savings is a few pennies a round...

considering the the 762x39 is expensive in walmart and in gun stores here, it's a bargain from them. Wolf seems to be the best deal.

I wasn't impressed with their ammo prices. I did find another site that had much better prices. I think ammoman.com was OK as well, but had free shipping. I don't remember where I ordered my 9mm JHP from recently...I'd have to look once I get home. $20/50 Federal HST 124 gr.

Centerfire is a local company for me, they are easy to deal with, watch them as they post special deals on ammo sometimes as well as other places... they have 40 round soviet bloc AK metal mags 4 for 49.99 they are where my 40 buck Mosin came from

them and buds are two great local places here that have a significant web presence... you cant go wrong with either

I may have to get some 7.62x39 from there when I have a little extra cash

i ordered my p6/p225 from them, i knew it was backordered and thats fine i was in no hurry to get it. It did take longer than they said, but maybe approx 50%. i think they said two weeks and it was almost a month, the gun was minty inside, sorta heavy wear, i dig it. I would do business with them again the price was very fair and so was shipping. I really dont get bent out of shape about shipping times, i only mentioned it to give you a more indepth review of service, than "i got a gun from them, it is good". I would rather shipping take long, than me pay more for it to arrive quickly, i was in no hurry.

I got those Federal HST's from Ammo to Go. And it appears they are out as well...hopefully my order got in in time.

I've been dealing with them since they were known as "Clearview Investments" bought some scopes, mags and various doo-dads, so far so good

Great company, and always make good if anything is wrong. Have bought tons of stuff from them. They may not be the cheapest, but the service is worth the extra price. I see a reference to ammoman....hey, if you've had good luck with them, good for you- I will never buy from him again (my own 3 strikes and you're out rule) even if he was giving away ammo. He is a prick to talk to and to deal with when he screws up an order or he misrepresents an item...
