Ultimate Arm Store, California - Rosecrans1 - 04-16-2022
A question concerning this business. Ultimate Arm Store in LA, Kalifornia.
They "seem" to have a lot of desireable ammo including 6.5 Grendel on their site and they say "if it's listed, it's in stock". The web site states they are BBB acredited yet there are no BBB reviews of them. (specific to Ultimate Arm Store and the Cal location). There are places with similar sounding names like ultimate armS store and Ultimate Arms, etc. They have reviews on Facebook among others. (all good).
My reloading equipment is packed up so I was looking for some bulk ammo but this place seems a bit too good to be true with what they say they have available and their pricing isn't high at all for what I was looking for. TGTBT maybe?
What say you hoard? Anyone use them or know of them?

Seems to be a pretty slick website but the bitcoin payment/discount is a red flag to me. If they don't accept traditional credit/debit/paypal payments, they just might be... TGTBT!

yep. the ones that only take paypal or digital, figure they are scams where you have no recourse.

I forgot to look at their payment policies. Was looking for non-corrosive M2 for my Garand. Thanks guys. What I figured.

I found this website from some thread also asking about website legitimacy during the big scam phase and its pretty useful for double checking and providing info that you can use to determine whether it's "legit" or not; https://lookup.icann.org/lookup?q=ultimatearmstore.com&t=a
Alot of the info for that site is what I would call "red flags" that would put me off from ordering, and like mentioned bitcoin/zelle is typically an easy identifier as to whether or not it is a scam.

Google maps the address. Looks like the sort of place where some shady AF dude will try to rob you, then try to sell you "fresh" seafood out of a shopping cart.

Rosecrans... I didn't realize how scarce non-corrosive M2 ammo or new ammo loaded to M2 specs is. I've been reloading my own since back in the 1970s. It was readily available by the case back then & I figured it would still be that way. Guess not!
Out of curiosity, I did a search for M2 ammo & I did find some Sellier & Bellot 30-06 ammo loaded specifically for the Garand on Ammoseek. Problem is, they only allow a max of 5 boxes per order.https://miwallcorp.com/sellier-bellot-ammunition-30-06-springfield-m1-grand-150-grain-full-metal-jacket-20-rounds-brass-case/

Good info. Thanks for the replies and, ????, the S&B ammo from them is ordered!!! I saw that place the day I posted this thread! Thanks!
PS I have a ton of Grendel I loaded up B4 packing up. I just forgot how much a Garand eats too! ????
