No, they violate Texas state law on pricing apparently. I take it you didn't watch the content on which you're commenting.

They play games and rip people off all the time. I know for a fact that the day after Sandy Hook, everyone that had bought and paid for ammo that had not been shipped yet, had their orders cancelled and money refunded. They then doubled and some times tripled the price of ammo. They are just a shady company and it amazes me that more people don't know about them.

Shop around. I have gotten good deals from them. Lately no deals out of stock or very high price.

It's out there. You probably won't find and article about it although it's possible if you look hard enough. However, there are plenty of people it happened to if you search. Mostly that will come up on old forum posts from that time period. People that bought ammo, mags and the like who paid before Sandy Hook, never received their items only to find out they were canceled but still available at hugely inflated prices.

Just for example: https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbt...15531577/ammo-shortage-and-buying-online

Here is an actual article I found:
https://www.pewpewtactical.com/cheaper-than-dirt-why-hate/

Oh, by the way. It's true because it happened to me! I had a case of .22LR on order a few days before Sandy Hook that was canceled but still in stock and I know I'm not making it up. They will never get my business again. I wouldn't buy a stick of gum from them.

Glad they got nailed. I have refused to shop there since they caved a few years back on the black rifle fiasco.

One issue was they took orders then changed the amount they charged rather then honor the original purchase price.
