Look at the price of 1K Privi 5.56 at Four Seasons and then compare that price to the many other places you can get it online.You will notice a MAJOR price differance.Golden Tiger 7.62x39 is $270 or so at Four Seasons, and around $180 at Rileys.
Ammo is a LOT more expensive than it should be because people are paying the obscene prices.
One shop that I know of is selling 20 round boxes of Privi .308 for $14.95 each..I can't find this ammo for more than $.50 a round,except here in MA.Rileys has it for $10 a box...
Ever notice how shops are more than proud to display the letter from ATK announcing yet ANOTHER price increase ?
Can anyone here that has walked into a gunshop honestly say there is an ammo shortage ?
Just so everyone knows, ATK has been featured in Businessweek. The fundamentals of the operation have been discussed. The biggest concern is the decrease of military usage of ammunition over the next 5-10 years. ATK admits that they are trying to raise the price of civilian ammunition to keep profits.
I am not interested in feeding a company that needs to grow same revenues at 20% per year to keep a high p/e multiple on their stocks.
