THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT
...Is so awesome! I've never used the pick up option before, but I'm in school all week in Jeff City and needed ammo. I figured I'd save money on shipping, so I opted for the "pick up" option. I placed the order at 1pm today, and was notified 20 minutes later that it was ready for pickup.

Stopped by this afternoon, showed my ID and 2000 rounds later I'm re-supplied!

They are AWESOME!!! I've used them before, and as usual their performance was outstanding!!!

Somewhere on there web site you can click on a link that shows your entire order history and $ spent with them....for your own good dont ever click on it



And NEVER let the SO find out about it!

Yeah, my wife wanted to know why it took an extra half hour to call her tonight. I didn't want to explain the trip to Columbia.

It took me longer to walk from my car and back then it did to complete the transaction.

Oh, and thanks for letting me know about the account history; that was disturbing. Now its like having a secret porn collection you hope your wife never finds....not that I have one you understand.

Being 5 minutes from my door to theirs requires fiscal restraint.

It is nice to be close to parts and components.

Me too, hell I even know a lady who's daughter is my daughter's best friend who works for Midway. Can we say employee discount? I think she started to dodge me about 6 months ago.

Thank God I'm no where near that close; I lack that sort of financial responsibility. I've got about 3 more months of school in JC, which most likely translates to 3 more pick up purchases. After that, its back to shipping again.

Please do. The website has always been easy to use, and since they are in my home state I like to support "local" business. But this transaction was excellent: Great price, easy to order and the young lady working the desk was friendly and helpful. Great experience (again)

I like everything except I can never get a promo code discount. I always miss the date!

Other than that, don't click that total tab! OMG - They are about 20 minutes round trip from the south side of COMO. Ouch! I am just too close!

MidwayUSA deals addictive products, they tantalize you with cheap prices, and then suck you in until your addicted! Every year for my birthday they force me to buy $300-$400 worth of reloading supplies! When will it end!

They are the top reloading supplier.

MidwayUSA sells more than any supplier, yes.

MidwayUSA be a tier one reloading and gun part supplier if Larry ever decided to provide tech support like Brownells and Graf & Sons.

Until then it is what it is. A damned good mail order house selling reloading supplies among a growing list of other things.

F*** MidwayUSA. Dirty sonsabitches keep takin' my money. The shifty bastards have been hitting me hard the last couple weeks...

First, it was $100 for mags and springs for my new-to-me 92G, then it was a little over $400 for reloading equipment, and now I get the feeling they're going to hit me again for reloading components and Sig mags.

I used to work there before I took my current job. Cool place to work and they have done so much remodeling and improvements since then. Only thing I don't get there is ammo because even without shipping its always more expensive than Palmetto State Armory.
