The Friday after Thanksgiving Day here in the United States is generally referred to as “Black Friday”. The day that kicks off the Holiday shopping season and helps boost 4th quarter earning for most retailers. The problem until that last few years was that most Black Friday sales had little if anything to do with the firearms market. Thank god that has been changing and this year in 2017 we have seen many retailers roll out their sales advertising a few days early in order to prime the retail pump. I can promise you that my corporate and personal email boxes have been slammed with marketing and hype over the last few days. Some of theses offers turned out to be very good deals. So we decided to help kick off our own Holiday season by giving you a quick run down of some of the better advertisements that we have had show up here at the site. So without much more chatter from me, let’s get to the facts.
#1. SLR Rifleworks – Up to 20% off RailsÂ
The Florida based company has already started offering up to 20% off of any of their rails. SLR Rifleworks has a huge selection of rails to fit all types of Kalashnikov pattern rifles and an equally large selection of rails to fit just about any AR-15 or AR-10 that is on the market. These rails aren’t cheap at their normal price but 20% off makes them very attractive to buyers who are worried about costs.
#2 DSArms.Com Eotech SaleÂ
Good optics usually cost good amounts of money. Anytime you can save money on the type of optic you want is a good day. DSArms.Com has not only left the EOTECH rebate in place but slashed prices a respectable 15%. When you look at the hard numbers that translates to more that $64.00 of upfront savings on the EOTECH 511 and over $80.00 savings on the smaller XPS 2-0 holo sight. Also consider that you will save even more with the rebate, this should make anyone who is considering an EOTECH this year’s decision a little easier. This is one of the most exciting Black Friday deals.
#3 Bear Creek Arsenal AR-15 Barrel SaleÂ
I first became aware of Bear Creek Arsenal when this past Veterans Day they offered free AR-15 barrels to Honorably Discharged Veterans. That really impressed by about they company, that they were willing to give away thousands of AR-15 barrels. So it was no shock when I got an advertisement from the company listing several of their rifles barrels with discounts ranging between 43% and 48%. The barrels are made of 4150 Chrome Moly Vanadium Steel and feature .075″ diameter gas blocks. With prices starting at under $50.00 these barrels will be perfect gifts for the AR-15 builders in anyones family.
#4 Nikon Laser Range Finding Binoculars- $200 OffÂ
I’m not ashamed to say I am a fan of Nikon optics and cameras. I have spent thousands of dollars on their gear over the past few years and when I see $200 off anything I get excited. This set of binoculars is reduced $200 for a very short time only. November 22, 2017 till December 4th 2017 only. Look at the specs on these things, they are built like a tank and will easily handle any hunt or hiking trip you can drag them on. These waterproof binoculars are massive at 10×42 and the range finder is accurate out to 1900 yards.
#5 American Eagle 9mm $139.88 per 1000 Round Case (After Rebate)
Centerfire ammunition has been coming down in price and for all you people that don’t live in Alaska like I do you can most likely order it and get UPS or FedEx ground to your door. At $139.88 per 1000 round case for quality ammunition, it’s a very solid deal. The great thing about this deal from www.classicfirearms.com is that it’s brass cased full metal jacket 115 grain ammunition made right here in the United States. Normally for deals this priced like this, you end up with ammunition like Wolf, or worse.
#6 Primary Arms- 58% Off Select Troy Industries Folding SightsÂ
Anytime you see the phrase “58% Off” on a price you have to stop and take a quick look. When you see that phrase on high quality folding sights like the Troy Industries models that Primary Arms has placed on sale you really take notice. This Holiday season there are six varieties of Troy Industries sights that have been reduced and should a wide range of weapons. If you have been wanting to add either an M4 of H&K style folding front or rear sight to your favorite rifle, there has never been a better time to treat yourself to something nice this holiday season.
More Deals On The WayÂ
With the recent “Trump Slump” that the firearms industry has seen in the last 10 months, our buying power is at an all time high. This Holiday season we have begun to see prices on everything from guns to accessories and ammunition plummet and companies scramble to get every cent they can form us. It’s only been two days into the 4th week of November and already we are seeing amazing deals. Keep checking back here because if we hear about deals too good to pass up we will be highlighting them. It may sound like a cliche but we want to make sure our readers know about deals on great products. Times like this also allow our buying power to stretch a bit further and might just let you be able to step up into an optic, gun or product that we previously out of reach financially. If you hear of any deals that you want to pass on to your fellow reader or score any Black Friday deals, drop us a line and let us know. I am curious how low AR-15’s will go this holiday season, I wonder if we will see the sub $375.00 AR-15 this year.
