I sure wish I could take back all the money I spent at CTD. That is just wrong.

That's a steal. How about a cool 100 for a Colt GI Issued 30 rounder?

Still not selling guns....

CTD will likely be out of business by this time next year if this keeps up.

But hey, at least they have Pmags in stock!

In a few words, it's a craptastic jumble sale, and the only stuff that's a bargain is a Double Extra Squat size 62 camo snowmobile suit that a wino (Shippy??) used to use for a tent. Now if justaguy were still around....

Oh, and the floor of that place is DIRTIER than the floor of the EFFEN Gopher bar after a Vulcan party. Seriously!!

Hey leave the Sportsmans Guide alone! At least they were nice enough to call me and say they couldn't fulfill my order of 600 Thermold mags.

I was referring more to the condition of the ahem"retail space" that seems to resemble a giant garage sale - at least the last time I was in there. I have purchased some things there and don't have any problem with them personally - just that they seem to have no sense of how to display and market merchandise in a retail setting.

I'm sure there are people all over the country that think that they are awsome - but they've never been through the garage sale.............

They have an isle for shoes and boots. Finding two of the same might be an issue, but they have a bit of organization.

I had a feeling we were on the tail end of the crazy mag rush, and looking through GB today makes the case for that pretty well. 3 mag bundles selling for $100, 10 mags selling for $355...

CTD clearly missed the boat.

I'm including windowed pmags with my LPK auctions just to have a leg up over the competition.

I hope Brownells honors their back orders!

Has it?

$40 each per pmag still - sure it isn't $79, but I think that $40 has been pretty consistent.


I don't think we're seeing less prices, I think we're seeing less volume. Lower supply, along with significant purchases already, has led to a lull. I wouldn't confuse a lull in buying with the tail end of this phenomenon.

I wouldn't be surprised if we see another wave of buying once legislation is introduced or debated.

From an old price list, I recall those Colt mags being around $50 when ordered from Colt directly by consumers.

[mikereilly]

We are selling them for $39.99 - and I have had that called high - However I would remind people ...

Liberty only exists in a capitalist society. Capitalism is market driven. Items are priced at what the market will bear. Yes that can suck when you want something and can’t afford the price they demand; but that is their right to sell items for what they choose to sell them for. I’m sure some people are not happy with us that we have not jack up our prices and we are skewing the market. Other people still get mad because our prices are not the same as they were last week. But the market is organic, people driven, choice driven. Liberty only exists in a capitolist sociaty
