TFB Weekly Web Deals 12: Deals to Stay Prepared
Every so often, national events occur in such a way that there is always a mass panic for specific firearms goods. Most notably ammunition, receivers, and magazines. This isn’t really a surprise to most of us who have been through the wringer a couple of times but to the uninformed, it might seem a bit crazy. Do you really need that much ammunition? Who really needs 200 PMAGS? What are you really going to do with all those stripped lower receivers? The fact of the matter is, that ammunition gets shot up, magazines break and wear down with constant use, and lower receivers are always great to have around as paperweights. Today’s weekly web deals are going to focus on things that people often make a bull rush for in times of panic – you know the kind I’m talking about. Welcome to TFB Weekly Web deals 12.

The term “ammunition on sale” really doesn’t mean much anymore. Over the last two years, we’ve seen an astronomical hike in the “average” price of ammunition, and not to be a Debbie Downer or anything but I quite honestly think they’re never going to get back down to the prices we were seeing even just five years ago. Despite this, you can still find decent deals online and in big box stores. I’ve found two of the most popular calibers on sale over at Brownells.
CCI Blazer Brass 45 ACP Ammo – 50-round Box $30.99 ($0.62 CPR)
- 230-grain bullet
- Full Metal Jacket
- Brass Case
- Primer – Small Pistol Primer
- 115-grain bullet
- Full Metal Jacket
- Reloadable Brass Case
- 1,135-fps advertised velocity
Like I said before, you can never have enough of either of these two things. M855 isn’t everyone’s favorite round but between it and M193, it’s still very popular and very effective out of most rifles. The GEN 2 PMAGS are a bit dated at this point but unless you’re running an obscure gun that doesn’t work well with them, that won’t be a problem for you. This deal will be available for a limited time from Palmetto State Armory.
CPD’s 223/5.56 Aluminum magazines take the age-old tested design to another level. This is a 30-round magazine.
Using fully robotic welding that monitors the most important aspects of spot welding, CPD welds are guaranteed never to break and far exceed mil-spec requirements. Combined with CPD’s specially designed anti-tilt followers and mil-spec 17-7 Stainless Steel springs. CPD’s Aluminum .223/5.56 magazines have become the choice magazine for OEM, Law Enforcement, and Military Units throughout the world. Keeping a few extra factory magazines around is never a bad idea; extra magazines save loading time at the range and also serve as a backup for those days when you simply cannot remember where you put your primary magazine.
M5 (.308) Stripped Lower ReceiverS – Anodized Black (BLEM)
Whether it is stripped lowers, uppers, lower parts kits, pistols grips, stocks, braces, or handguards, you can never have too many AR-15 or AR-10 parts. Aero Precision has a number of populated and unpopulated (stripped) 308 lowers on sale for a decent discount.
Includes:
- Stripped M5 (.308) Lower Receiver in Anodized Black
- Nylon tipped tensioning set screw
- Plating inconsistencies
- Pits
- Scratches
- Dents
- Flaws in finish
Our blemished products are fully functional, they just didn’t meet our high standards. They are a great product at a discounted price for someone who doesn’t mind a slight imperfection. We do not accept returns on blemished products.

It seemed like there were a lot of places with 9mm more around 15-16 per 50 last week, 20.99 isn't a deal even in this climate.
TargetSportsUSA usually has excellent prices. And shipping is free if you buy it by the case…
