Ammo Subscriptions

Buried at the end of this article it says that Vista Outdoors plans to sell directly to the consumer through "ammo subscriptions".

They're going to squeeze it for all they can. Cynical me thinks they will also require you to be vaccinated to buy ammo.

Kind of like a stealth IQ test.

Similar to CCI daily updating their website daily, selling ammunition direct to consumers at MSRP... undercutting out the price-gouging retailers

For the time being, that may be a good thing?

Everybody stands for capitalism, until it starts to be costly. Don't forget to thank the federal government for the bubble they are blowing and remember - nothing stays the same forever (except God).

I wonder what they are actually selling say primers to distributors for compared to what they are going for out there To us? Id frankly rather be paying the manufacturers inflated retail prices instead of the gougers. May be the only way to stop those gougers.

If Hodgdon and CCI can do it I’m sure others will follow. Lots of people/companies watching and planning.

Really, honestly, an ammo subscription is a great idea imo. 4 bricks a month (2 standard velocity 2 mini mag target) would be awesome to just have delivered automatically. If they did like a 10$ a month charge with free (or cheap) shipping, I would gladly sign up.

It's a good way to build a stockpile. It's like Amazon Prime Subscriptions.

My thought exactly. Eventually you realize you have 100k rounds of each.

SMH, scrolled right by his post and missed his name, I only saw Social Security and deficit.
My apologies for the mis-directed credit. Thanks Jim.
More proof that I need an upgrade on my glasses.
