Isn't this the one?
Hate to make it worse for Longshot here, but if people are ordering from Brownells, it's worth the reminder to use Active Junky.
No worries! I figured i may have misworded and made it seem more confusing that it was!
Yeah, that is true. Hey, it is all good. I am personally a Brownell's customer, and use Active Junky. Business-wise, we are very big Brownells customers, as well as their sister company, Crow. It is "coopatition." We are customers, and competitors, and the Brownells family and their teams are all good people. At Charlie's, we compete with Brownells in only a dozen or two dozen SKUs. Geissele there is a lot of overlap, but in most areas, we are laser focused on military rifles and clones, and Brownells is the Home Depot of gun smith stuff. I mean, we normally buy from other sources, but just like the home builder, he runs into Home Depot when he needs a few screws. We work closely with Brownells on clone things, new HK things, blah, blah, blah.
Honestly, we don't compete as the price leader, but we try real hard in certain areas and certain brands, and we will push it to the metal. Then, some firms have excess inventory, and need to sell-off. Happens to every retailer or e-tailer. You will see dramatic price drops. And, from time to time, you will see a dealer stop carrying a brand, and slash prices below cost to liquidate. All part of Economics 101.
What I would say to this audience is that we seek to be your first stop for all things military rifle and clone related, as well as odd, hard to find shit. I would rather have it in stock, and be priced a little higher, than not have it in stock. Again, there will be those brands and SKUs that we will be the lowest price on the planet. I don't want to give away all our pricing strategy, but optics, red-dots, scopes of current vintage, as well as scope mounts, rails and triggers. email me. I am your huckleberry. For clone and unique items, we normally go big and when we see opportunity, buy big and hold. 10 year old Leupold scopes, Knights Armament Mk11 shit, we got it, or we are having it built. Those are not price wars, it is a matter of who has what you need.
Plus, we enjoy what we do.
