    Anyone else hate it? Maybe it's just me, but seems way less easy to view and user friendly than the old site. Harder to search and view multiple items on one screen, etc.

    It kind of sucks. I think there are a lot of glitches in how you can search as compared to the old style site. It's also not as easy to view lists of what is available. I sent them some feedback about what I saw to be some issues. If it ain't broke - don't fix it applies to AmmoSeek but instead they went ahead and evidently changed it look appealing to those millennials and later generations of idiots who like glitz more than they like practicality.

    It was definitely time for an update. Their old site looked like it was designed in 1990. I tried it a few minutes ago. Seemed functional and easy to use. You can leave reviews now for the retailers, if you log in.

    Yep... Worst part is having to click a button to pull up a side bar in order to modify a search, instead of just clicking on the column. Retarded design.

    They also made it slower.

    Everytime I've been on it, ammoseek seemed to be a place where all the low price/high shipping vendors congregated
    I rarely used it for that reason as well. It is nice that they list shipping cost as well, but their scale is a bit arbitrary.

    Everytime I've been on it, ammoseek seemed to be a place where all the low price/high shipping vendors congregated, so I've always stuck with bothof the "gun deals" sites and lately r/gundeals.

    On the app, you can filter it by free shipping and below-average shipping.

    I’m assuming it’s possible in the website, but I haven’t looked.

    Here's their reasoning... https://blog.ammoseek.com/posts/why-ammoseek-changed
    Here are the main reasons. The old (classic) AmmoSeek...
    1. was not "mobile-friendly"
    2. had an outdated general design/style
    3. was using old, insecure third-party code code
    1. That's why you have two front ends, you pinecone.
    2. That's generally not an issue as long as it works.
    3. Most CISOs need to be tortured with aversion therapy until they can't even say the word "update" without gagging.

    Bullshit. Every round I have ever bought using their site was on an iPhone
