I refuse to purchase anything from CTD. I see they're still charging their unreasonably high prices?

I agree about CTD. But, if we're going to go that route, just about every online retailer is doing the same thing.

But I find they are above most, and they are called "Cheaper Than Dirt!!!!"

7mm Rem Mag is still plentiful at every store I go to. $42/20, but thats normal price, so it seem unaffected by ammo shortage craze.

I see .270, .44 mag and surprisingly .45 Colt just about everywhere I go.

Academy Has has .223 and 5.56 ammo in stock each monday with supplies usually selling out on friday.

.308/7.62 is also available as is .45 ACP. However .22lr and 9mm seem to sell out very fast.


They also have plenty of Windham AR-15's and DPMS LR-308's in stock (they don't display them since newtown).


during the worst parts of the panic buying the one caliber i did see everywhere was Ruger 204

I always see a LOT of 300 Win Mag every time I go to Academy. Plenty of 45LC and 357SIG as well. Sometimes 357 Magnum. Haven't seen 9mm, 22LR, or 30-30 in a long time.

If you live in Houston, all of the central and south east/west academy's i've been to have had 308, 7.62X39, 7.62C54R...now how over priced they may be, i'm not sure. And of course there are plenty of shotgun rounds.

7.62x39 are available and run about 34 cents a round. Much more now than they used to be. But very available. Are you ready to buy an AK-47 or variant? I don't want to talk poorly about any company but the last time I tried to buy from CTD they had an excellent price on a gun case in their mailout flyer and of course they were out of stock. Everything I see from them seems to be overpriced.
