We do plan on bringing back the DPX 30 Carbine round eventually, but right now we have to concentrate on CorBon DPX ammunition in pistol calibers, as you can imagine.” It will take us a while to get caught up, but we will get there. We have lots of customers who have been patiently waiting, and they will be rewarded for their loyalty. We will begin filling orders sometime in December of 2017, and will fill them from the oldest to the newest. We currently have orders for several million rounds of DPX. It’s been a long, rocky, and expensive road, but we are now very close to being able to, once again, produce DPX ammunition that I’m proud of, and a product that my customers can stake their lives on! I had no idea when we started the project that it would take this long, and use up all the resources the company had, and then some! But, I refused to compromise and refused to put out a product to my loyal customers, unless it was the best on the market. Remington/Barnes intended to manufacture a competing DPX line of ammunition and obviously preferred not to have us competing with them.Īfter months of working with several alternative vendors, we reluctantly realized that, if we were going to market superior DPX ammunition, worthy of our name and that out-performed all others, we would have to make it ourselves! Without warning, they cancelled our contract, saying, ‘We will no longer sell you bullets.’ In fact, I worked with them on the design and testing of the product. Barnes was our supplier of DPX bullets, made to our specifications. Goes with the territory! The problem with our famous DPX line of ammunition is a classic example of the big company trying to crush a smaller one. Unfortunately, competitors and detractors sometimes start destructive rumors. The Pi family has owned CorBon since it’s inception, and still owns 100% of the company, thirty-five years later. I started CorBon Ammunition back in Detroit, MI in 1982 and years later moved the business to our new facility in Sturgis, SD, where it is now. It gives me a chance to set the record straight and quench the rumor mill. Pete is an ammunition company CEO who is, himself, a genuine Operator!
