Optics Planet standard cap mags / Question for IL members. Login/Join

Seems that Optics Planet is not going to sell standard cap mags any longer. The company claims it just coincidental to the latest nut case and it is because of local laws.
I figure they are full of it, they aren't known to be too customer friendly anyway.
Regardless, did something change for our IL / Northbrook, IL members regarding magazine laws?

Why would you buy ANYTHING from these frauds? I've been saying it for years.

Just don't give these frauds any of your money. They are out to screw you.

Nope. Not going to be a loss to shooting community for sure. More concerned there wasn't any additional knee jerk / local politics BS affecting IL gun owners.

OP flat-out lies to their customers. They stock almost nothing, but tell you they have items in stock. When you order from OP, they then order your items from the wholesaler or manufacturer.

They LIE to you on a regular basis and waste your time as a result, because shipping is sometimes severely delayed, or they end up not being able to get the items and have to cancel your order. This is the very definition of a deceptive business practice. WHY would you even CONSIDER giving your business to these frauds?

Nothing has changed in Illinois law yet. The Chicago dems are introducing more bs bills as we speak. Para is 100% correct on Optics Planet.

Change in law, change in policy, doesn't really matter.
The only issue is someone actually purchasing something from Optics Planet.

I've read enough about that place to not even consider buying from them. Those and the bastards at cheaper than dirt.

Screw those guys. Support the 2nd or don't.

Last time I bought a taper mount from them. Showed in stock. Took 3 weeks before it shipped.

That's because they lied to you. This is SOP for these frauds.

Nope. I worked less than a mile from OP in Northbrook. We hear the predictable bloviating from local pols, but nothing has changed.

However, as Para said, buying from OP shouldn't be a consideration anyway. They have a virtually unblemished record of overpromising and failing to deliver.

There are too many good optics dealers to ever give them the time of day.
