My fault, I am agreeing with you, I was just typing fast, as I had to leave my house. No offense intended. I was speaking about mr. Economics.

When we had a massive flood here locally, after the flood there were insurance companies paying for cleaning out and cleaning up, and disposing of houses. I mean literally gutting whole houses. There was HUGE deman for Dumpsters. I happen to be in the dumpster business. The demand insanly high, and the people were in a panic. Our company, a Dumpster and Demolition Company, offered a local service, and we worked massive amounts of overtime passed our regular 60hours (50 hrs is a slow week). UNLIKE CTD, we never raised our prices a dime. We didn't EXPLOIT our customers. We realized this was a win win situation for us. While other refuse hauling companies were charging out then nose taking advantage of insurance policies, we came in, hauled out, for the standard price to that county. It's been 2 years and I am still doing buisness out there as a result of helping them when their back was against the wall. You see, this AR 15 magazine price explosion is bullshit. CTD is artificially inflating the market, hurting the consumer, but they have that right, if thats their business model....to take advantange of their customers in a time of panic or need. This is NOT my companies business model. We seized the opportunity to supply a service when it was in high demand, in such a way that years later it still conjures up new private business, in a sector we had never focused on; Solid Waste Cleanup. Just think, CTD probably did more damage than they did good, but its their choice. Its their bed. They made it. Now let them seep in it. As you know, they know they pissed alot of people off, and they think that they made good buy donating tons of money to certain funds. If that clears their exploitative business model then fine, buy from them, if you think it doesn't, then don't. Go elsewhere.
Good Morning. Have a nice day snipershide.
300 rounds of green tip 5.56 only 399.00 ! What a bargain. I removed myself from their email this am
Has anyone forgotten that they support the 2nd Amendment and made a stance with a lot of other companies? They are getting my ALL my money.

Why? I think it's funny as hell when the send out an email saying they have USGI magazines in stock for $99 each. It's like someone sending you jokes to keep you entertained. Let their business model come back and bit them in the ass.
That was sarcasm. I was doing that to take a jab at all the guys that are "oh I wasn't a customer before but now I am."I guess we found the cheaper than dirt worker.
You are going to give them all of your money because they jumped on a bandwagon for some good publicity, thanks for the laugh.
Tyler, what would be a better word choice for my post on CTD gouging?
If it's like this two years down the road I might have to re-think it, but not now.
Two or three years from now 99 percent will buy whatever business has the lowest price. I remember the outcry when S&W cut a deal with the Clinton administration (and when Bill Ruger made his now infamous hi-cap mag statement). Gun owners were going to drive them into bankruptcy. We all know how that worked out.
I still say it takes two to make a gouging. A co-worker suddenly became interested in ARs right after things fell apart. He managed to find one at a not too terrible price, but had only one mag. He begged me to sell some of mine. He was prepared to pay any price, but I told him to be patient. Several weeks go by and I'm in the LGS when a box of P-mags arrive. $24.95 each. He's happy he waited.
