Where to buy 100 OBIs

Post by durant7 »

After 15 minutes on the web, CMP, etc etc. I decided to throw it out to those who know. As match director I need to buy another block of OBIs. As I look at the remaining few we have they are made by JFS Inc in Salem, OR. All I get is a phone number, no on line ordering and I am right coast....they are left. I was told we bought them directly from some company in the PNW.

Any pearls of wisdom out there? I guess I can just wait to call them.....

Jud,
we use colored pipe cleaners at a local pistol match here. They can fit any chamber, be bent to just about any shape and cheap.

I was going to add that John, but even a search didn't produce and results, must be they are out of them or changing the style as the little green ones were not real handy.

Well, their phone number works. I have 100 enroute. I always use the weed eater line but, in the spirit of safety, I find that people take safety even more seriously when they have a purpose made device to indicate their firearm is safe. So, for under $1 each, it seems like a good investment in safety. But I agree, zip ties with a piece of tape for a flag, weed eater line, you name it.....it all serves the same purpose.

Thanks!

Jud
