How much was 9mm during the last sale?  I'm running low  :'(

Post by: sirkaiks on March 02, 2012, 04:24:29 PM
the new year sale was $209/1000rds 125gr. and $219/1000rds for remington 115gr. about a month ago it was $239/1000rds federal 115gr. these are all 9mm prices. sometimes they do one day only sales. nobody beats ogc prices.

Wow $209/1000 125Gr?! Thats a great price.

Dear OGC,  have another ammo sale I have about $400 in my next paycheck waiting for you.

I need 5.56 as well. Maybe we should use this thread as a petition for OGC to have another sale.

or maybe a group buy.  based on my own experience, when a bunch of customers prepay it makes giving discounts a lot easier.  take the payment, write a bulk order, receive the product, call the customer.  it's pushing papers and phone calls at that point.

Im building a M4 at the moment, good time to get in on a group buy.  :thumbsup: Couold use some 9 also.

I'd be in for a group buy for 5.56 assuming it's something I'm interested in, like XM193. 

How about a group by for Black Hills MK262 77gr?  I was going to order some online and just pay the charge for transportation/shipping of hazardous materials.

I'm in the same boat bro. I'd love to get a group buy going for both XM193 (PMC X-TAC!!) and the Black Hills MK262. I was looking into having it shipped via FedEx.. basically costs around $100 to FedEx 2nd Day Air 1000 rounds of it ($30 hazmat fee included). Thats on a friends FedEx account. He's small time though, so maybe you can get cheaper?

Anyways let me know!

Ill take the Pepsi challenge against any mainland dealer once you put shipping into the equation.  If we dont win we are close enough to tie...

Many of the internet ammo deals and group buys are complete smokescreens where they don't even have the ammo or know when its coming in but they are happy to take your money.

If Hawaii shooters keep buying their bulk ammo from us Ill be able to keep prices low by buying mass quantities.  If they don't, Ill have to order less so the price with go up.  You, as consumers, control the price of OGCs ammo by creating the demand, which allows me to meet it with great deals.  People want a group buy for less than 10% over margin?  That ends up with OGC going out of business.  Not going to happen.

Be assured, like always, if a great deal comes along for me to buy at discount, you'll see some great twitter specials come down the pipe.  And if I need help with preorders to make a deal work, Ill ask for them like I have done in the past and you guys all helped me out.

that being said I think I have a independence 9mm and 45acp deal like up that will come out to $210/1000 for 9mm 115gr Brass FMJ 9mm and $320/1000 for 45acp 230gr Brass FMJ
Ill let you guys know if I can make the shipping work.

Definitely not trying to put you out of business!

With the group buy we're just talking about other ammo you don't carry.. Black Hills MK262, etc

But.. any 5.56 coming down the pipe in the near future?  :love:
Title: Re: We need another ammo sale!
Post by: drck1000 on March 06, 2012, 11:12:12 AM
I was actually thinking that if we got enough interest for the Black Hills MK262, that if Carter could get a decent price that we would order through him by the pallet and at his chosen profit margin.

It that wasn't an option, I was going to buy something like 500-1000 rounds and just pay the higher premium for the shipping cost if that was the only way to get it.  If someone was interested in buying the same as well and distribute the shipping cost across the order, that would be fine, but that wasn't my intention. 

My thoughts for posting this in this subforum is to gauge interest and also would serve as an indicator to Carter that there is enough interest to go ahead with something, even a pre-order deal.  We have such limited choices here on the island and with shipping, Carter is right, his bulk ammo prices are typically competitive with online orders if you factor in shipping. 

Maybe I should've started a poll as to who would be interested in Black Hills MK262, or other BHTP or OTM match ammo.  It appears that there are at least 2 people interested. . .

Wait the sale on 9 was for "Federal"?  The case of 9 I bought yesterday with the 219/1000 deal yesterday was "Winchester".

This may be a noob question...but is "Federal" the same or related to "Winchester"?
