Be sure to enter the NES/Pioneer Valley Arms February Giveaway ***Smith & Wesson SD9VE 9MM***
Be cautious. Steve at Northeast Arms said he had a bunch of blown up guns coming into his shop from using Turan ammo. Cases were rupturing if I recall. Most damage was to the Sigs that didn’t have a supported feedrampLooks I'm gonna finish stocking up on 9mm with this stuff. No idea how good it is.....

Only stuff I have seen on TSUSA is aluminum or steel cased garbage for .44mag

Also read on other seller's reviews that it has inconsistent primer depth, causing issues...Be cautious.

Notwithstanding all that, all ammo manufacture requires fine-tuning.Turkish. I'd rather pay a couple extra pennies per round to not give my money ro those a**h***s

On my order sales tax added about $0.0001 per round.
There is also shipping insurance, which was $1.10 , which added $0.005 per round.
Per my bill of sale I paid $0.0076 per round.
UPS did a Saturday delivery. Delivery was supposed to be before 7pm. At 7:30 the stuff wasn't here. I was too tired and passed out on the couch.I have always been buying the shipping insurance because it doesn't really cost that much relative to the ammo cost, but, is it really necessary, does anyone else buy it or have experience collecting on it? Please share you thoughts, thanks.
None of the other stuff was available this morning. I would have bought the blazer aluminum over that stuff.Turkish. I'd rather pay a couple extra pennies per round to not give my money ro those a**h***s
Yeah, posting on my phone during a boring meeting got me. Fixed the postI think you're off by one decimal place.

I never get the insurance. (Someone's always home) Have saved Hundreds $$$. Never an issue since I started buying 6 years ago...

I've been buying from them since I moved South permanently in 2015 and I make sure I am home on the designated delivery day. I don't know how many hubs it goes through before it is on the truck headed to my house, but it's probably at least 2 or 3. It was only $8.71 on a $600 + order so not much in the scheme of things.I never get the insurance. (Someone's always home) Have saved Hundreds $$$.

EDIT: If I lived on the West Coast and knew how many hubs the shipment had to pass through, I'm sure I would have a different opinion...
How many times in 7 years did you need to open a claim?I've been buying from them since I moved South permanently in 2015 and I make sure I am home on the designated delivery day.

Does Visa cover stolen packages?
Visa cardholders can benefit from the security and safety offered through Visa Purchase Protection. If something you bought with your card is damaged or stolen within 180 days of purchase, you are protected.
Only had 1 time a couple years ago where I only received the 9mm I ordered but not the case of cci 22. I called and had to send pics of the package I received showing what was in it and how packed and they credited me back because they did not have the .22 in stock anymore. I had to reorder it when it was back in stock at $50 more for the case.How many times in 7 years did you need to open a claim?
