NO MORE OPTICS PLANET!!

[GeauxLSU]

Cook county IL does have a 10 round max restriction.

Stop being a buzz kill. We've almost got enough tar and feathers for the lot of 'em!


Optics Planet is HQ'd in Northbrook, IL which is in Cook County. Here is the code.

They've sucked for a long time. No loss

I didnt even know Optics Planet sold 30 round mags. Where is the cheapest place to buy pmags at the moment? LGS far north GA has M2s windowless for $17.99 so not a great deal.

PSA, 10 pmags for $86 delivered the other day.

Who the **** shops at Dicks anyway? It's the Elmer Fudd superstore of useless hunting ****.

I’ve been boycotting them since they stopped the AR orders.

 

[Necrosis]

I got all the AR 30 round mags you want for $100 each shipped.

I'll sell mine for $50 each, FREE shipping lol.

Cook county IL does have a 10 round max restriction.

Yes a restriction that was supposedly put in place around 2013, and it just now applies...

From what I've read from IL residents, it does not apply, and they are using it as an excuse.

You can get 10 pmags and 200 rounds of 556 for 120 at PSA

And supposedly Northbrook has preemption over Cook because they have their own firearm restrictions, and that's how IL law works.

Saw this posted elsewhere. The Cabelas in Hoffman Estates, IL (also Cook County) has plenty of 30 round mags in stock at the store.

I guess Optics Planet should let them know they're breaking the law.

 

[Fatal_Bert]

If you don't have it ready to ship take it off your ****ing website or show not in stock. That's my issue with them bastards. Sounds like now they're using their ****ty website management as an excuse for this backlash. Not sure what is worse.
