    Is anyone else having problems getting onto Brownells site?

    I'm getting this weird message:

      Over that last week or so they had some real tech problems. Their phones were down for at least a full day.

              Yep. Cleared cookies and still get the weird message.

                                  Haven't had any problems and I check for ammo at least 10 times a day. Also checked for mags for some buddies. No problems searching or logging into my account, or adding something to my cart and checking out the coupon codes.

                                      Their website has always been a little clunkier than it needs to be IMO. Great sellers, but they could stand to update their platform.
                                      Buy made in USA whenever possible.

                                              1. Treat all guns as if loaded (even when you know they aren't).
                                              2. Never point the muzzle at anything you aren't willing to destroy.
                                              3. Keep your finger off the trigger until your sights are on target.
                                              4. Know your target and what is beyond it (avoid all collateral damage).

                                                      Not exactly. The codebase is quite different - and they are TWO separate applications and can live side-by-side in a Windows 10 installation.


                                                      That said - no issues with Brownells here on my side... I tried with Chrome, Firefox, IE, and Edge on a Windows 10 machine; and Safari on both a Mac and iOS devices.

                                                          What DNS server are you using? If you are using an anycast DNS server like 8.8.8.8 or 9.9.9.9 or OpenDNS etc, the EDNS/ECS may not be working right for you and not giving you a US IP for Brownells.

                                                          What IP returns for you when you lookup www.brownells.com ?

                                                          With a PC issue this command from a DOS prompt:
