    I want to get another mag for the CCP and none of my usual places carry it. Midway has a good deal on them, but I have no experience with them. Opinions?

    I've ordered from them several times and have been happy with the products and shipping. Seems to be a good outfit.:yes:

    My pleasure. The owner (can't recall his name) is a BIG 2nd amendment supporter. :thumbs:

    I have bought from them for 25 years. I remember when their mailings were just a 20 page or so newspaper . Never been disappointed.

    Midway is great, and shipping is very quick. Brownell's also gets orders shipped fast, in my experience. This is with their standard shipping.

    WWW has used them a few times, and I hit a sale on disposable cleaning cloths from them several years ago. Always arrived in great condition, NO complaints.

    I ordered some things, from Midway, for turkey hunting yesterday at 9:00 AM. Received the e-mail that the order had shipped at 11:46 yesterday. Estimated delivery is February 15, standard shipping. I did feel that this was a bit quicker than normal. Must have been a slow day.

    Got it today, but I ended up going through cheaperthandirt because the stuff the old lady needed was coming from there. Less shipping costs.

    Right where I need to be.
    Their shipping rates kill me on .22lr. Other than that, my experiences have been good.

    As a 2a supporter, you should research how ctd treated their customers during the last scare on hi cap mags, ammo prices, etc.

    They were the first retailer jacking magazine prices 10fold. Yes, a $10 mag went to $100 overnight.

    Plenty of shops like midway held to their $10 price and didn't screw the customer.

    I won't give ctd my money, even if shipping is cheaper.
    Jmo. Support midway if you can.

    Thanks for the info. CTD was the only reputable dealer I could find the pinky extender mags for her 709. I will avoid them in the future.

    CTD is on my "no fly zone", unless it's one item and super cheap.
    I learned my lesson. Pay attention to their shipping locations. They can really get you on shipping if you don't pay attention.
