Any idea if this is the real deal or a scam? The site seems to have literally EVERYTHING, including guns and ammo from Remington but when I go to the "Contact us" tab, I get a header from someplace called Woodmart.
Desperately seeking some 20 ga Accutip slugs, and they have them, but it seems to good to be true.....

If the site says one thing, but the link address when you hover over it says something else… the IT team I have at work would say stay away!

Good luck finding your slugs.

Stay safe.

They have no address or phone number so you cannot call them or write them. What guns store website would do that? A SCAMMER. Rugergunstore.com is the same thing. Ruger is after that one.

This is a scam. There are multiple (your brand here)gunstore.coms on the web and they are all scams. Avoid like the plague.

It takes less time to verify a scam site than it does to post "...real deal or a scam?"
1. Remington doesn't sell firearms direct to consumer or their FFL.
2. No physical address.
3. Random capitalizations In text.
4. "We ship worldwide"
5. Payment methods are Zelle and Bitcoin.

And here’s the official word from an email response from the REAL Remington.com……

Thank you for contacting Remington Ammunition,

• The website is not associated with us and is not licensed to sell our products, do not order from them
• If you made a purchase report to your credit card company for fraud
• Report to your state authority for consumer fraud

Thank you,

The opening home page is actually pretty convincing-appearing and could certainly rope in a non-skeptic. Once you poke around a bit more, you see language that appears a bit "elementary" for an accomplished firearms manufacturer (or any reputable company.)

The "Ruger version" of the scam appears to have already been shut down. I was curious.

You were right to ask. Spread the word about the prevalence of these types of scams.

Might want to seek an alternative for this year than AccuTips. Remington ammo will be spotty with availability. Hunting season is around the corner though and I have seen plenty of Hornady 20 ga slugs.

THe Remmies are only one of three different slugs I'm looking for. You seeing the Hornadys on local shelves or on the interwebs (with a reputable retailer)?
