Premier Arms in Brownsburg.

[Longshot-JSFL]

Anyone been in there and seen their prices lately ?
Had plastic bags with 20 rounds of .380 for 26.99.
I saw 50 rounds for 10.37 at walmart last night. I feel
They are fear mongering as well. I hear them tell everyone
In there how bad it is and how they can't get more
Ammo for up to a year. Looked on their counter and they
Have suspicious amounts of ammo.. Like 3 boxes of this, 3 boxes
Of that. They also had stickers from another store on them.
Anyone feel like this about them?

premier arms owner is great to deal with, been a customer before and also have a friend that does business there quite often, i imagine if you look at other shops it will be the same way. prices are up and they are scrambling to get what ever kind of inventory in they can.

They've always treated me fair. They have kept the pricing on firearms at retail from what I've seen. I know they've been pretty limited on ammo since the panic set in.

Bryce is a good guy and I used to go out there a lot but haven't made the trip in quite a while. When he got the 2nd GSD, the white one, I couldn't take the barking anymore. He used to have decent prices but like I said I haven't seen him in a while. He is a total M1 Carbine freak though! Really has a great collection.

50 rounds of .380 for $10.37? What brand was it?

I am a fan of Premier Arms and have always been treated well there. Their prices have always been competitive on anything I've been looking for.

If I am looking for something, they are always the first or second place I check.

 

[Longshot-JSFL]

Well the ammo may have been in the wrong spot.. Tula for 12.97 is more like it
But 1.50 a round for fmj and lead isn't noble. I agree on their gun prices for non
panic items. I don't know Bryce.. but I'm sure I haven't dealt with him the way you guys describe him. I frequent a few gun shops and their prices are nowhere near Premier's. (PSS, Bradis,). I was excited to see a shop near my home, but when I saw their prices I was really turned off.

As stated above, Bryce is a straight up guy and if you would also state there are Numerous FULL cases of various ammo around the store. Bryce and crew are NOT Walmart gun case sharks buying and reselling ammo at the store.. Mabey before you accuse you might want to get to know the store and owner.. Bought many a firearm there, always a fair deal..

 

[Longshot-JSFL]

I didn't accuse.. When you see repackaged ammo at outrageous prices there is no accusing to be done. The facts are there. I have spent a fortune on guns/ammo and I wouldn't jack the price up like that for you BFT if I wanted to. I was trying to get to know the store if you actually read my post. I stated my opinion/first impression of the place. Asked if their was anyone who had more than a first impression or shared my opinion. This was done to find out if I should just continue patronize PSS as I know Bob wouldn't gouge like that. I just like the idea of a close LGS. I was thinking before long I will go in there and see individual bullets for sale. Again, I haven't been going there for years, just the opposite. I'm glad he has you guys supporting him. I'm frustrated beyond belief with things right now, and I feel like one half is taking advantage of the other. I guess it's okay for some people and not others.

I got a good deal on my TCP around the first week of January at Premier. I have since seen TCPs at gun shows and shops as high as $160 more.

 

[Colt556]

Were the rounds in the baggie personal defense type rounds? They often run pretty high for 15-20 rounds? I've heard that Bryce is not in the shop very often anymore but I don't know that to be a fact.

I'm a regular at Premier, PSS, C&C Midwest and Bradis. They all have their good points and their bad points. Shop around and find the best deals you can. If you're patient this madness will quiet own and things will sort themselves out in few months.

 

[Longshot-JSFL]

Colt, They werent defensive rounds, they were brass but not all were
even FMJ. I thought the same thing. It blew my mind, then scared me.
I hadnt bought ammo in a couple weeks and thought it must be getting
worse. Then I hear one guy at the shop tell someone how bad it going to
get and that they are only selling what they already had ordered before
the panic. He went on to say he cant get anymore ammo for 6 months to a
year. Im thinking crap. I went to Walmart to get gifts for nephews and I walked by the ammo case. They had 9mm, .380, .38 special, .40, and 45 auto. And quite a bit. I bought my share and felt better. Then like 10 minutes go by and a guy comes in and bought it all..no limit. But thats a different story. I think it all will settle down, but high prices perpetuates the whole thing. Along with people flipping ammo. Sorry for being aggrivated.
Midwest ammo prices are crazy to. I gained/lost alot of respect in this whole mess.

 

[hps]

I seen those 380 rds you are speaking of. WOW!!!
25 rds of defense 9 mak $30 lol. Bradis had'em FOR 19

Are you saying knowing the owner justifies high ammo prices?

 

[j706]

First off I need to say the Bryce is one of my best friend's. Second Bryce has never ripped anyone off on anything. There are few guys in this world that are his caliber.

As for the ammo....Premier Arms buys firearms estates from all over the country. We are talking stupid big money estates I might add. With those purchases he often gets partial boxs of ammunition, loaded mags ect. Knowing the ammunition is hard to get right now he does what any reasonable person would do, he trys to pass it on to his customers. If you think the price is to high on something all one has to do is say so to the staff.

Coming on a website and basicly accusing a business of dishonest practices ain't to cool IMO.

I used to deal with them but I have heard the same crap the OP states. They suck on trades and I will not buy any more guns from them. Personal reasons. Shop where you wish. They have seen the last of me after more than 10 gun purchases in a year. The entire attitude has changed in there.
