Front Sight NV

APachon · February 13th, 2005, 11:24 AM

I am not sure who all is looking to attend the Front Sight NV Academy this year but they no longer accept shipments of ammo for respective students. I have a solution if any of you need it. Wally World, IF you want to place an order with them, I go there quite often and would be willing to store your ammo for you and depending on when you fly in I might be able to meet you close to the airport so that you do not need to drive all the way out to where this Wal-Mart is located.

There is a Wal-Mart close to where I live that I have talked to that will conduct special orders provided a minimum of 3 weeks lead time is given.

The Manager of the Sporting Good / Shooting department is Linda and her number is as follows along with the address.

I haven't went to their online site yet, is there a reason for not accepting ammo shipments???

They (Front Sight) do not want to deal with the hassle of storing ammo for arriving students.

Bud, that is pretty much the consensus. They felt that it was becoming all too burdensome and they put a stop to it. I have a few military friends that go to Front Sight once or twice a year and I pick up there ammo for them and hold on to it. I also sometimes pick them up from the airport and they have at tiems done teh commute from Pahrump to LV. This year they are going to stay out in Pahrump. I figured I would try to help others out as well.
