I'd be leery of places with no street address shown on their site,
and only take payment in those odd ball methods and not common credit cards.

Their phone # is listed as 785 534 6792 and the product shows blemished. The other primers are $74. They list an email address.

Read the Testimonials. Pretty funny. The respondents write in broken English. I tried chatting online with one of their salespeople. I asked questions about the company and he/she disappeared.

The Chat guy came back. I asked what his address was and he replied:
6201 Robinson St, Overland Park, KS 66202, United States

That's also the address of:
The Bullet Hole
6201 Robinson St.
Overland Park, KS 66202

Walk away. No credit card payment option, with Paypal they want "friends and family". None of the payment options offer protection.

Around four months ago I saw some LR primers for sale cheap, so I decided the buy three boxes of 100, even though I didn’t really need them. I forgot I ordered them. A week ago I saw a credit on my bank card. They refunded everything, saying they were unavailable, but used my money for three months for free. I wonder if that wasn’t what they were planning to do from the beginning.

These sights are popping up all over. They claim the have intend in stock at prices that seem unreal. Stick with the known retailers.

You can dress a pig up in a dress and taker her to the Prom, but when the dance is over and you take her home, stand on her porch to say goodnight and steal a kiss . . you're still kissing a pig.

Don't walk away . . . run.

first thing that caught my eye
this from the web site

Our store has a simple guiding principle, “Arm Everybody.”

better off dealing with known places with track record.
powder valley
Midsouth
grafs
midway

Just read their terms and conditions. You send them your money, after that they aren't responsible for anything including sending what you ordered.

Yeah, they are for real. Real crooks.

Scam... Another one. The first thing I do when an unknown retailer pops up from a search, is check their street address. No address? close the page. If an address is listed, I look it up in Google street view. No street view, or the building address doesn't match the web listing? close the page. Done. So far, searching listed addresses of unknown sellers like this, I've come up with a couple N.J. slums, a vacant pole barn in a field, and a beverage distribution warehouse. These new web page scam sites are very well done. I something smells fishy, or you're not internet savy, one would be wise to stick with our known long time and trusted sources.

The Bullet Hole is legitimate they have been in business for over 40 years that I know of. They also had a place in Wichita ks called the Bullet Stop. hung out there a lot in the 80's and 90's. Very nice people
I plan on forwarding forwarding this info to them.

I had no intention of ordering from them. The thing that jumped out was after hitting cart to see if they claimed to be in stock, I noticed a 20$ shipping charge but no hazmat.

There is no hazmat on ammo. And a company can roll it into a flat shipping charge. But for the foreseeable future, if anyone has primers and powder listed, and the major retailers don't, it is guaranteed a scam. GUARANTEED

Domain name was registered on 12-23-2021, site is hosted in France at an organization well known to support criminals (ovh.net).

100% scam.


- Google "whois sensiflexsupply.com" - that gives you information when the domain was registered (12-23-2021. A brand new company having components that not even the large stores can get...)
- run "ping sensiflexsupply.com" in the command window and grab the IP address (178.33.25.117 in this case)
- Goggle "whois 178.33.25.117" and that gives you information where the website is hosted (France in this case, which is unlikely for a US based company...)

There are countless sites such as this, most of which popped up over the last two years. After you've seen a few, most are easy to identify.

I just about fell for a scam site last week . The PayPal Friends and Family thing tipped me off they even emailed me . Said as soon as I make my order they would tell how to do the PayPal thing. This world is full of crooks.

Walk away. No credit card payment option, with Paypal they want "friends and family". None of the payment options offer protection.

This is the red flag to look for, they walk with your payment with no direct recourse except a lawsuit. Where would you file in Kansas or Texas or… god only knows.
