Re: 2 day Tactical AR Operator course with Low Light Shoot - Discounted Price!
We all understand the ammo situation in the firarms industry right now.
If you have an AK platform weapon, a 22lr conversionckit for your AR, a mini-14, a 22 carbine such as the Smith & Wesson 15/22, please feel to bring it.
If you are interested in this course but are having trouble finding .223 or 5.56 ammo, contact me and I will try my best to help you out.

Re: 2 day Tactical AR Operator course with Low Light Shoot - Discounted Price!
Folks,
I've recently obtained several thousand rounds of Federal XM193 5.56 ammo which I am making available for sale to 3T students.
In order to cover the shipping costs that I paid and to keep the math simple, this ammo will be for sale at a price of $0.50 per round. $0.50 per round is higher than the price of 5.56 ammo before everything went insane following the Newtown shooting in December, but is still far below current prices on Gunbroker. I'm not selling this ammo to make a profit - I'm doing this to make ammo available to students who need it.
Minimum purchase is 100 rounds.
This ammo is ONLY for sale to individuals who have signed up for a 3T carbine course, and will be distributed on day 1 of the course.
