Possibility of a Group Purchase of 5.56 Bulk Ammo?

[undeRGRound]

Indeed. It was not my intention to criticize. It is commendable that you've even taken the task. It will be awesome if you are successful. I don't have any leads or know who to contact, but I am willing to help out however I can. :-)

Very Nice!

We will do exactly as you suggested before, give some price points and
then folks can decide. You are on target, just a tad early. It's a good plan,
lay out the price breaks and see how many will be in a a price. I have several
folks lined up to buy multiples, so I think we can hit a "level up" with the
"heavy hitters" as I call them.

Thanks Jackson, it is looking pretty good at this point!

@ ALL:
I'd love to get 1/2 million, but we are under 200,000 now.
I guess I need to post a new thread, for ORDERS ONLY.
We could keep this one open for SUGGESTIONS, but I need
a moderator to monitor this one for moving the posts to the
correct thread. I'll see who I can contact about that.
Suggestions?

You might get more Attention in the group buy section of the classifieds. Also put me down for another k possibly, price depending, that 3k total for me. Thanks and good luck.

If it happens I will be there to watch you all divvy it up

Not sure who all you've contacted, but I have used Prvi Partisan (PPU) 5.56 M193 and M855 spec loads with pretty good success.

Ammunition | Wholesale Ammo | Shotgun Ammunition

Website says they only sell to wholesalers. Not sure how many rounds are required to be a wholesale deal. Is this on the list of people contacted?

Too late?

Hopefully I'm not too late. I could be counted in for 1-2K rounds at $300-400 price range. Thanks for even trying to organize this-great idea.

 

[SlugRetention]

I would def be interested as well....pending price...2k

 

[swanny]

I could do 2k as well if its a decent price.

 

[Butch627]

2K here as long as there is distribution up North

Inquiring minds want to know......

Two weeks of talking and I still don't have any confirmed ammo coming???

Is this going to happen or not? I've put off buying elsewhere on the hopes of getting "a deal" here.

I'm still holding out for 2,000 rounds in the $300 to $400 price range......

The OP did say it might take a awhile. Add the holidays and the current panic and it may take even longer.

Yes, I contacted PPU, and they are sending me to retailers.
Thx Jackson!

I will get more into this when Aszerigan gets back online 1-8-13
Still gonna try, but at this point, most mfg. say to contact a retailer.

Hate to say this, but I suspect we are at least a month away.
No one is really willing to sell direct, presumably because of contractual obligations.
They have to service these first, and everyone is buying ammo as fast as they can.
I even bought some locally, but I'm not bowing out by any means.
I have not even used my own GP money for anything else
We're likely over 180,000 rounds but at this point I'd be amazed if we get that great of a price, seeing that everyone is short of supply. Unless Sen. FrankenFeinStein dies of terminal Ugliness and Stupidity, that is

I for one appreciate your diligence on this.

 

[Skywired]

I also thank you for your efforts. I'll double my commitment to 2K.

 

[garlic_b]

Ditto. Details. 1-2K

 

[FFJakeT]

I would be in for 10k - 12k if possible. Thanks and good luck ! a group buy within a group buy haha, just to simplify things. Easier to distribute and to deal with the money. Others should try to do the same if possible! This is of course price dependent! Etc.

+2 here.

 

[undeRGRound]

Andrew Aszerigan should be back in town now, I'll PM him and see what options he has...

Would setting up a poll for 1,2,3,4,5,6,7k rounds be a good easy way to track current wants? For all I know you already have a spreadsheet set up, I just thought it might be easier then combing threw the thread. I rogered up earlier on, but was just thinking about this as I saw it again...

That's a darned good idea!
