    Scam sites - Primers

    I'm not getting the warm and fuzzies from lots of sites. Especially the ones that wont take a CC for payment. They seem to have the same format, have lots in stock but only take Zelle, Paypal or Bitcoin.

    tacticalfirearmsandarchery

    theprimershouse


    I think a running list should be in order.

    And you shouldnt have the warm and fuzzies. Good eye.

    If they have lots of stuff in stock, its a red flag.
    You used to be able to check their SSL certificate, but now everyone is like 3mo-1yr even for legit sites. Thanks Apple (They pushed for max 1 yr certificates).

    Always load up your cart with ridiculous amounts of primers, then go to check out to see the payments. If you can load up $100k of stuff, obviously no good. If they dont accept credit card, its a scam. Most sites, before 2020, would limit you to 20k primers. Now its obviously much less.

    If things check out, then check various known sites for confirmation that they are good to go.

    Forget the running list. They come and go, and 1 year later they are all defunct.

      Add The Outdoor Armory to the list.

      After getting a hit on a search for primers I found that The Outdoor Armory is a legitimate site

      Philippines' Premiere Outdoor and Sporting Goods Store. Distributing the following brands: LEKI, Injinji, MSR, Gear Aid, munkees, Nite Ize, Sawyer, Therm-a-Rest, UCO Gear, GSI Outdoors


      But the one that is offering firearms and primers is not.

      The Outdoor Ammory supplies ammunition, primers, reloading brass and certified firearms training in Dunedin, Florida. Shop 171 products with fast US shipping.


      Notice how they spell armory! This is a clear sign of a SCAM. These thieves will use legitimate sites and slightly misspell the URL so they look legit. Run away!
      Stop calling them Lawmakers. It only encourages them.

        *All* sites selling components that don't take credit cards are a scam. 100% of them.

        If a site is selling primers for less than $79 a brick, or not charging hazmat, it's probably a scam too.

        Basically, it's down to Natchez, Brownells, midway, and powder valley who actually have primers for sale on a weekly basis. Maybe midsouth too, but i get non primer components from them.

                    Great. I have a certified check for $250,000. I'll send it to you. Take $200+$1000 for your trouble and send the $239,800 back to me along with the primers.

                      Bruh you sure about that? I just watched as Milton and 13 others purchased things. I know they bought them cause they popped up little messages telling me they did.

                      And that address even though it appears to be a house in Florida, it COULD have the 100k+ in primers that I just put in my cart... That house is no ordinary house. It is at the END of the cul-de-sac so it is clearly an upgraded house...

                      Just saying...
                      7 Billion people on the planet. They aint ALL gonna astronauts. Some will get hit by trains...
