    Its around 50 percent off, email them and they will send you the info. Ill just say you wont pay over 86 dollars for any dozen, 86 is for the kevlar one's. Everything else is cheaper AWESOME!

    I checked and you have to serve at least 20 years to be eligable for a Military ID. BULL$%&# Not a big deal I still have a million copies of my DD FORM 214 that I can break out at moments notice.

    I'm waiting on an e-mail response from CE. If I actually get a response I'll post the info on here. If there actually is a discount that big and it also applies to retirees then I might actually order some Maxima Hunter KV 350s to see how they do.

    I just received the e-mail from Carbon Express, and I must say that the discount prices for military are impressive. The price on a dozen Maxima Hunter KV 350 shafts is $84.64. The price per dozen pre-fletched is $90.91. Everything on thier list is similarly discounted.

    Thier e-mail didn't actually specify if ex-military and retirees are eligible for this discount, so I posed that question and I'm waiting for their response.

    Even if they don't include retirees and ex-military, Carbon Express has earned my respect.

    Well, it was a bit like pulling teeth to get a straight answer, but putting it plainly, if you have a military ID, active duty, retired or otherwise, you get the discount.

    Sweet, there are a lot of places that give discounts to active military, but very few that extend that to retirees! CE has got my attention and respect both!

    I get a nice discount through Sitka, Vortex Optics has a discount but it seems to go through a funky third party and takes forever to get your stuff.
