What is the going price in Twin City M196 Tracers? Been thinking that a mag or two would act as a deturent to some one chasing you.

Check cheaper than dirt, pametto state armory and widener's etc...

I think it's around $.40/rnd, but I'm not sure.

If someone is chasing you and you are actually in a position where you need to deliver some rifle rounds downrange, I suggest hitting what you are aiming at instead of "deterring" them with tracers.

I sold some nice clean TW196 at the Knob Creek show last year for $8. a box.
I was surprised to drag half a case home with me on Sunday.
Probably should have knocked off $.50 a box and would have sold out.

Edited; BTW, where is the 'Midwest' ?,,,,,,,,, and what ya got to trade

I like 196 for the first 3-4, (or last to shoot) rounds in my GTW mags, besides every 5th. round throughout.
Nowing you've run dry in the dark, in a panic, with you'r ears ringing, can save mucho time and confusion

Just remember, they'll start very nice fires too.
So as always, know where you'r shooting.

Cheers, YV
