    It is probably BS as it is a warehouse with no visible signage. I have my 10 foot pole ready.

    Well I just bought 3 boxes of Speer 380 ammo from Target Sports for about the same price a local retailer charges for 2 boxes.

    I don't get why some folks are getting bent out of shape. TS-USA is an IP here, this is their subforum, they're allowed to post what they want here, especially ads.

    It looks like a fairly basic but good list of things to look for when buying online. Makes sense to me. I've bought from them too, no issues.

    I bought probably $15-20k from them in maybe a 5 year span prior to the last panic shortage. They always had the best prices on cases delivered and it usually arrived within two days. The annual savings membership was worth as well if you buy a lot. For $99 it saved me just shy of $1K in a one year period.

    Wrong.
    They are a totally legit ammo company that always ships ammo for free if you buy a case. I’ve bought a lot of ammo from them.

    And this is in their paid-for subforum.

    I usually buy from SGAmmo just because I’ve been a customer forever. But I have made a few purchases from Target Sports and have always been satisfied. Reminds me that I need some more 77gr 5.56. Will see what they have.

    I have been buying ammo from target USA for years and have never had a single issue with them. I get exactly what I order, packaged well and usually arrives in 3 days.

    Target Sports USA IS a good outfit, I’ve got tons of great deals on good ammo from TS!

    Legitimate store with good prices. Whatever I don’t get from my local supplier, I get from them.
    Good pricing and fast shipping.
