Nice! Thanks for the heads up, only been shooting copper plated BBs. Gotta try these in my MP40 and see if they work better in the double stack mag.

That's dust cheap.... When I see such deals always make me think about the cost to make it...

I don't need BBs anymore... Remember I bought only jonce years ago (the first time I bought BBs and BB gun), and just got more from buying new used BB guns and shoot less than I got new inventory....

Hopes I could see this type of incredible deals from Amazon on quality pellets like JSB, H&N, RWS something....

You are right, they were $3.08, when I bought them last winter. Not $3.

I find that the Hornady Black Diamond BB's work better in my MP40 & other full auto BB guns. Never has an jam with them.

well-- i got my 6000 little temporary visitors already today. you think they would pack these just a little bit better. it,s just pure luck that the one with the top completely off didn,t break open. any one else have a similar problem.

Thanks for the heads-up Pete.

But something looks a little strange with your order. I have gone thru dozens & dozens of bottles of Umarex .177 BBs, and never had one have a seal (like a medicine bottle) under the top spout, like your. Maybe the seal was applied by Amazon as they found that bottle's spout to be loose?

And you shouldn't complain about Amazon's packing. I order these Umarex BBs from Walmart.ca last month, they were not packed properly, and box was ripped open on the bottom & 3 bottles were missing when it arrived. Took more than an hour on the phone to finally get Walmart to refund my money. They refused to send out replacement BB's unless I placed another order for more than $35.

Also, why are the Black Diamond BB's from Umarex, so much more than the regular Umarex BBs on Amazon. $10 vs $3. Where as they are only $8 at my local Cabela's?

Go figure. As I have said before, it pays to shop around.

I personally prefer to shop at a local retail store than go on-line, unless the online price is substantially less.

[emoji38] there's always somebody didn't wake up before working... I got an order replaced without having returned the broken item to Amazon....

I ordered a 17kg size cat litter and something else. And they put everything in another bigger box without any cushion (for such an almost solid 17kg litter box, I don't think the brown paper or the air seal bags are workable... Actually usually they can / should just stick a label on the litter box without any outside double package to ship...)

So, you can imagine what I received by the door way... And how can I return that heavy half spilled litter box?!

Just dropping your order into the box and seal without any or with less than enough filling materials just normal... So I always appreciate those guys packing things properly ~ and myself always double check the item is no moving and fitted in the center of the box with good protections all around before mailing...
