OMBguns
Anyone ever order ammo or firearms from OMBguns before?
WWB JHP 50 rds $8 ? $15.99 shipping for 1000rds?! Apart from reloading or Dicks military discount where I got Wolf for $7 per 50rds box, this is a killer deal

I haven't purchased from them, but I can tell you it is a local company with a couple stores that are geared towards to LE. One store has clothing and accessories and the other has guns. The gun store didn't have much on the shelf when I stopped in there a few years ago, just a few Bushmaster AR's and a few pistols on display.
From what I can recall I stopped by because the OMB Gun website had a really good deal on XM855 Green Tip. Apparently the deal was web only because they had none on the shelf, the staff didn't know what I was talking about, which led me to believe they were either drop shipping and/or they have a mail order warehouse the local staff knows little about.

thanks Paslode. When I called, I was told there are several boxes left. The website does not reflect actual inventory as you could put 99999 of them and it still allows you to check out

You were probably at Omb Express. They arent the same even with OMB in both names.

I have. Always had good luck with them so far. They used to be a blue label glock dealer but arent anymore. I havent ordered from them in a little while but I would not hesitate if they had something I was gonna buy.
Sincerely,

I believe if you order through http://www.sfastore.org/ the Special Force Association (SFA)earns a commission on the sale.

I tried placing order with sfastore and got charged 0.00 for shipping. Thinking that's too good to be true, I called sfastore number. The person did not have a clue why and referred me to call OMBguns. I called OMBguns and both personnel there were not aware they're affiliated with sfastore  I think there're still some kinks to be resolved there. I'd be glad to contribute to sfa via my investment in lead

I bought my "SF Engraved Glock" through the SFA Store last year and the distributor was OMBGuns.
There may be remnants left over on the SFA site...

"Engraving"
Eagle,
I've got a boy scout wood buring kit, thinking it will engrave a Glock, let me know if you need any further embellishment.

OMB guns is GTG! The lady at the warehouse was even kind enough to call me immediately when they do not have an item in the amount ordered. She also allowed me to modify the order right there and then and reduced the shipping
Apparently, this is what they got for $8  http://www.midwayusa.com/viewProduct...tNumber=449826
the shipping fee is back on sfastore. Not sure it reflects real time stock availability though ie. the P30 is no longer available at $795

I am glad they took care of you. I do not endorse many places, cause nobodies willing to pay me for it yet. They have always treated me very well.
