Anybody know what's up with Hill Country Ammo?

[AustinN4]

Went to their web site (http://www.hcammo.com/) this morning and up came a different business:

Gearfire, 15160 N Hayden Road - Suite 100, Scottsdale, AZ 85260

Wow, don't know. I sent an email, I'll post what I find out, if anything.

I believe their site is transition...GEARFIRE will allow them to offer in-stock items from (currently) 7 different distributors on their website.

We are currently working through the same process....

Here's what I got.

I know a few local shops that could use that.

Well, I tried it and could not get back to HCA. It routed me instead to a store that had what I wanted but for 1/3 more than HCA had it for the last time I was able to check it. Some discount!

Dave, maybe you could go by HCA's actual storefront to see what is up there?

 

[Davetex]

Well, it's not a store front, it's one of those rental storage places (and a very low rent one at that). When I've been there it was already a set-up meeting with him. Even if I did go by there. I wouldn't be able to tell if he was still renting it, unless he just happened to be there. His main employment was/is at one of the high tech companies in downtown Austin. He only fooled with this on the side, and I don't think he ever made much money at it. He kept very little ammo in the storage unit, it was mostly bare. He probably moved on the greener pastures.

He probably moved on the greener pastures.

What I figured. Thanks.
