Price Explosion in the AR Market/Ammo

Cheaper Than Dirt leads the way with the 2013 price explosion.

Anyone know what this was selling for a week or two ago? Now it $900 for 1k rds of M855.

I was in a CTD retail store the day CT went down - before I’d even heard. The same stuff was $499/k.

They say they’re separate companies, but there’s a lot of overlap in product.

Its only going to get worse … it will die down eventually .

Wow it was $650 yesterday. :cray:

On cheaper than dirt pmags went to $30 (for 1 pmag) after presidents speech, now they are $60 (for 1 pmag). At that rate they should be selling 1k of m855 for $1600, so $900 is a steal!

It’s their right to do this and it’s my right to remember and tell the world.

Yeah, more power to them, but they’ll never see any of my cash.

Agreed on both points.

This. Ever.

More power to them? I wouldn’t fault a company for making money but I wouldn’t congratulate them for doubling their price because of a national tragedy.

Just BUY IT!

they did the same thing in 2008 leading up to and after the election. Needless to say they haven’t seen any of my money since around 2003.

They are selling PMC 55gr FMJ Bronze for more than Hornady 75gr TAP.

Bronze IS the new TAP! :p…

AND is not even Gen 3 is Gen 2.

Agree with you.

IMHO, depending on how this whole situation plays out in regards to future legislation, restrictions and added taxes,etc., it will no doubt put some businesses out of business, put more people in the unemployment line, and shrink the bottom line of the businesses that remain in business.

Haha my LGS just had a sale on PMAGS Gen 2 for $10 a piece to help make room for the new Gen 3’s. Glad I grabbed a few!!

Awesome. Those mofos trying to be slick.

I don’t know why you guys are complaining-- they clearly label it with “Our Low Price: $899.97”

No doubt in my mind that it’s Cheaper Than gold-nugget-filled Dirt! :smiley:
