View Thread: Well, I WAS WRONG!


Hambone
I posted a number of places here that Chicken Little alarmist nitwits, dealers, and dealer shills would look foolish in "60 days" when 7.62x39 was again cheap and available. Well, I was wrong. The people panicking, spreading silly rumors, and buying up overpriced 7.62x39 don't need to wait 60 days to feel foolish. They can feel foolish now. My local Academy is jammed up with Monarch and Sportsmans Guide and Midway are jammed up with it. SG has Wolf for $103 per 1000 with the coupon and $113 with the coupon for "Classic". Now if you don't listen to the Chicken Little nitwits, dealers, and shills, the price is going to drop more and we'll get better deals because there will be mountains of this stuff to follow.

However, those of you who are panicky nitwits, PLEASE rush out and load up on everything Academy, Midway, and SG has. See, I want these people to buy all their stock up so they place more big orders thinking this sales velocity is going to continue. Then, when these wholesalers are stuck with large quantities of the stuff, and there are shiploads of it waiting, and start heavily discounting it, me and the rest of the rational sentient shooters will buy it cheap.

Sorry if my posting of the truth makes you feel like a douchebag. However, I'm sure you are used to it.

Good deal. And don't forget to get at least a 4-8 year supply of firecrackers!

Could you post some links to that cheap and available ammo. I'm so dumb I still can't find any.

what's with the hardcore attitude? It really detracts from your credibility. Any first year economics major could make the same observations.
BTW I bought 4 cases of S@B 7.62 for $80.00 per case last month in a private sale. :small_gri

Hey Hambone.what is your problem??? every post you have made on this forum has been to antagonize. belittle or name call. YOU MIGHT HAVE A LITTLE MORE CREDIBILITY IF YOU DIDNT COME ACROSS AS A POMPOUS ASS.

LOL! I guess since you put it like that, I reckon I'm a douchebag too. So, from one douchebag to another, here is the link to the SG ammo (the "classic" with the lacquered cases is $123 and the polymer is $113,) With the coupons it is $113 and $103 respectively, $15 shipping for me equals $127 and $118 to my doorstep. It ain't $79.99, but beats the crap out of $160 or $200+ charged by some gouging hucksters.

Now, when you order use the coupon codes provided and they will knock off another $10. Shipping for me was $15 for 1000 rounds. Tax here is 9% so I ordered instead of buying Monarch at my local Academy which is $2.81 per 20.

NP guys. Ya'll are close, she's pregnant and it's hot here in the summer. Before this when I farted and blamed it on the dog (who farts too) it got an eye roll. Now me and the dog are banished to drive thru cuisine at the local Ass In The Box. And Dono, no shit re the first year econ student, that's my point. I reckon alot of folks don't understand economic otherwise instead of wailing and moaning they'd be saving their money for the big ammo glut to stock up.

Uh, credibility on an internet forum? I don't mind coming across as a "POMPOUS ASS" because I reckon I am one at times. ;) What's with the tripled question marks? Are you screaming that question or just asking it over and over? Further, if you aren't a nitwit, sheeple, shill, or douchebag, don't worry about it.

Hambone just because a website has it LISTED does not mean they have it.
Sportsmans guide has some of the better prices available for the 7.62x39, but the ammo IS on intergalactic backorder.
2 delivery dates SINCE MY OWN ORDER have come and gone, there SAYING Aughust 11th now, but I am sure that will change sometime around the 10th.
Many other people have been waiting MUCH longer.
I hapily paid $100 shipped to get 500 rounds of ammo from a suplier who had it in stock BECAUSE I WANNA SHOOT not dable in the stock market.
Walmart , local gun shops ect are getting close to $10 for 20 rounds, yea it sucks..........we all know it sucks............. But what exactly are you spouting at the mouth about?

Either give us some links or go away.
You are less informed than most of us.

The only reason I am posting this is because there are some VERY mis-informed "people" out there still trying to create some kind of scare about ammo, here is the real scoop from the government (for once they actually did cause something I blame them for)

A while back a certain company was found to be importing their FULL AUTO ak varient rifles from a place that starts with C and ends with A, rather than fine them and shut them down our government actually signed a contract with them to produce arms for the new iraqi army and police, (for free) I dont remember the exact number but it was around 40,000 weapons. The same company was also to build the ammo for said weapons, but they had nowhere near that kind of production level, some three months before their deadline they began to outsource ammo production, even with that said they were still WAY below on ammo (about 1.5 million rounds SHORT) so rather than face the U.S. government they bought all the ammo they could from anywhere they could. In a six month span they purchased or had produced 15 million rounds of ammo!! This mass bulk buying was all that made this scare happen in the first place. I have ammo, all local shops have ammo, and so do most internet shops. Problem solved

I saw a stockpile of 8 years of ammo, once, and of the approx. 200,000 rounds none were ever fired, and the camel chaser that had it died just like he had no ammo, use your brain and training for survival and you will prevail, let fear take over and you will lose, just with a bigger pile of ammo.

Yes I am a retired Army Veteran, no you cant have my M&Ms and I like MREs,

Go up about seven posts and read before wanking. You see that font that looks funny with "http" in front of it? Those are links you can click on. Search the places I gave you. I also provided a link to a catalogue coupon to save another $10. Do I have to burp you too? I know Academy has it because I talked to them on the phone. The guy told me they had a pallet of it in the back for $2.81/20 (not $10/20) for Monarch. Still high, but they have plenty. Guys on other forums are reporting that they are receiving it from Midway. I know SG has it (unless they are lying again) because I ordered a case of it yesterday, they assured me they had it, lots of it, and it was not back ordered. Do you know how to search the net? Go to Midway's site, Cabela's site, Natchez site, and Academy and you'll find what I'm talking about, unless everyone is lying about having this ammo cheaper.....than the liars on the net forums claiming there will be no more.

akxtc
My backorder from SG for 7.62FMJ, which was only a week or so old, has been given a UPS tracking number.

'The skys above are clear again.'

Next case I'll be sure and use the $10 coupon-thanks Hambone.

Remington just made another run of 7.62x39 brass and ammo.Remington makes the absolute best brass in this caliber.They make it with small primers and it last longer than any other brass in this caliber.Not a bargain if you don't reload but Remington hasn't made any for while so I'm glad to see them run off some more now.Remington chose small primers before SAAMI settled on large primers for the cartridge.Federal switched from small to large primers when SAAMI published specs for 7.62x39.Winchester makes the weakest brass for this cartridge.

LOL and welcome to the party Winston. Dog, don't know about eating shit sandwiches. But I do know my AKs will be eating some Wolf at $118 per thousand delivered. I'm glad I'm not an alarmist bunghole with hoarded cases of this crap at $200. The only "SHTF" should be coming out of these sheeple when they realize they've been sheered. SG sent my tracking number yesterday and the stuff is on the truck on its way. So much for alarmism and scare tactics of profiteers. You can thank these nitwits for $118 a case. If everyone just chills I'll give you another prediction: Under $100 by Christmas. Given my prior 90 day prediction coming true in under a week, I'll even trim the under $100 prediction to say, August. You heard it here first.

I say August too, if not, Ill make another shit sandwich

I can't find 5.45x39.5 anyware, BETTER.............oh never mind

Hambone

Yes but the shit sandwich thing is YOUR deal. I'm not taking a bite because we agree on August. Just want to be clear on that. As for 5.45, I thought about getting that calibre but didn't. I have about five ARs and three AKs. I think that the 5.45 is only used by the Russians and their satellites. Some of the Warsaw Pact satellites that did or would use it are now NATO and 5.56. Everyone else is 7.62x39. I think the 7.62x39 is a slick little cartridge for 300 and in and I like .30 cal. I'm a big 7.62 NATO fan, see my creation below; kills hogs dead. I think ammo for the 5.45 will always be available, but it may die a slow creeky death over years. A Russian trade embargo for whatever reason would put the kabosh on 5.45 more than 7.62.

My dealings with campy have been very good over the years, and I've been around since before Al Gore invented the internet.

MouseBoy
Boy, that makes sense. You have finally convinced me. Yes, I now believe as you. It was the M2 graphg that did it. I see the light and I've converted. The days of sub $100 ammo are really over!!!

Ammo will be over $1,000 per 1,000 by the end of the year.

Hambone
Very sweet. Furniture source?

Thanks Blackmore. USGI stock, that I cut down to minimum LOP, fitted a Pachmayer decelerator pad, NM mods to ferule, and bedded with Devcon Plastic Steel. Filled the selector and reenforced the forend with it to eliminate flex. Also moved the USGI swivels to the side. I painted in in a pattern to match the country where I shoot hogs, boar, and javelina. The paint was Brownells Alumahyde II. Awesome stuff that has held up really well. I patterned a bit of it by pulling fishnet hose (a suggestion of the wife actually) over the stock. Added a Smith Ent. muzzle brake and ARMS18 (new style). Also added a Smith extended bolt release, which is the best accessory devised for an M1A or M14.

Also, I added a rail segment to the foreend, reenforced with Devcon that I use for a ARMS32 qd bipod mount with Harris 6-9 leg notch swivel, and for a Surefire taclight in a WMF mount for busting them at night. This thing will shoot 2 MOA with RG and right at 3 MOA or under with SA if I do my part. Down to 1.5 MOA with Portugese FNM. It's about the same o/a length as a SOCOM (1/4" longer) but I kept extra fps and energy of the 18" barrel, plus the muzzle options of the original milspec front end. Handy about the size of an M1 carbine, low recoil due to the pad and very efficient SEI brake, low weight. I like 10 rd. mags in it. It rolls them pigs ;) Also, doing it yourself, while taking a bit of time, is pretty satisfying.

Hambone
