Brownells is a ghost of it's past

Their schematics come in handy in finding parts / repair / assembly...I just sent them my updated ffl / sales tax exempt to be on file but haven't ordered anything in a while. Seems the stuff I need was either out of stock or the dinky order is less or equal to the min shipping which pushes me elsewhere. Not hating on them as I know they don't want to miss a sale, is what it is.

Well there’s your problem …
Sincerely, good luck. I hope you find what you want. When you said their website gave you a migraine I interpreted that to mean you were looking in the online “catalog.”

I wish Geissele would give brownells a break on MAP with stuff.

Albeit that’s not the fault of brownells and I’m assuming G just wants to push complete rifles....... and blunderbusses

I just want a goddamn 14.5” HK SMR rail!

I gave up on brownells. It seems a lot of items are priced HIGHER then MSRP. Not sure why they do that...considering one can just buy directly from the mfg at that point.

I've been a customer of Brownells for years. In the past year or so I think they have stepped up their game. I get my FFL-03 discount and they are forever offering significant coupon savings. I do enough business with them to justify being a part of their membership program. I have no idea what people are talking about Brownells being a "ghost of itself."

Brownells is good but everything is hard to get right now.

I use weapon outfitters a lot. They often get hard to get parts. For example, I got a Vltor A5 buffer tube and Unity fast mount riser last week. I get the PWS ratcheting castle nut/end plates from them. Got a tan Eotech EXPS3 a few weeks ago.
