What do you like about the product?
Like most folks, I was skeptical of a new brand, but Mark 1 made a great intro offer. I’m pleasantly surprised. After shooting about 100 rounds suppressed (RC2, 11.5” barrel), I found the ammo to be solid range plinking material. Will happily buy again around the same price or slightly higher.

I also found the customer service and the experience to be great — an ammo can, a handwritten thank you card, and a hat on the first order. These folks really seem to care, let’s hope that care and the quality holds up!

Only availability. Doing great!

I love the product because the ammo shoots so well at a great price!! Super consistent with my shots at 100 Yards. Poa poi for me off a bench. It doesnt shoot very dirty for me, casings eject well!
What would you like us to improve?
The ammo, stickers, and ammo boxes are awesome and i have nothing negative to say. Only a suggestion to maybe have an option in the future where we can buy a box without the ammo if it saves us more money or lets you guys be able to pump out more ammo? Otherwise im going to find myself with a ton of ammo boxes, though thats not a total negative. I just wont have the room for them!

Keep up the awesome work. Your customer service is great, and you move a great product.

What do you like about the product?
I can't say enough about this ammo. Ordered early Monday morning (3rd shift worker) and had the ammo at my door by Thursday afternoon. No issues out of the 300rds i put down range and good grouping.Hand written thank you note and a hat included. Those little things go a long way when common courtesy is lost today. Amazing customer service. I've already purchased several more of these cans and cases of 9mm. This company has a customer for life.

Excellent product!! Was afraid to try as anyone should be with a new business and I also couldn’t find allot of reputable positive reviews I spent almost an hour researching. Got my box in about 4 days with the hand written thank you not and upon close Inspection of ammo and putting it side by side with rounds from a very large trusted company mark1 took the win, excellent craftsmanship. I loaded up, pulled the trigger and to my relief it shot perfectly! All the scary thoughts of my gun cracking or blowing out from bad rounds went out the window I order another box that night!! No joke this is the only stuff I buy now especially because it small business American made
What would you like us to improve?
Maybe 1k rounds and up deals

Some mark 1 merchandise and gear to proudly wear and use to show my support.
Comment
These guys aren't afraid to unashamedly stand for FREEDOM and that particular way of life and I will continue to use mark 1 as long as they do. The only thing better than the rounds they produce is the customer service they offer. Outstanding job gentlemen and keep up the good work! Stay FREE

Excellent experience purchasing from Mark-1. I got the package in good time, and was pleased with the quality and was exactly as described. I haven't had a chance to try out the ammo yet, but will try to next weekend. I just felt compelled to leave a good review and will update but great job guys
