Well this is turning out to be an interesting thread. Let's see if I can cover some of the posts here.
Yes, I knew it was a backorder and yes I have other mags and lots of ammunition and have had both since well before the Newtown shooting. I was ordering for my 2 sons and son-in-law who recently purchased their first AR and don't have as many magazines as I. No, I am certainly not blind to what the worst President in American history is and has done to take away constitutional rights and bankrupt our nation. Yes, I certainly knew about the Midway USA donation and applaud them for that. No I am not a former Midway customer as another poster stated and yes I will continue to order from Midway at least in part becase of their fair pricing and that donation. Yes, I ordered items from the evil CTD and the items were priced lower than locally, were in stock and arrived in 3 days. I ordered because of a fair price and immediate availability when local stores were sold out (BP, Academy & Dicks) of what I needed as was a number of other online sources including Midway, Natchez, Cabelas, Bass Pro & Able Ammo.
So is it OK to be dissapointed that an order placed after mine was filled before mine as is posted above? Is it OK to question month after month after month of changed dates? Is it also fair to say that these unprecedented times are largely if not solely to blame - absolutely. My only point is I wish that nearly 3 months after the order was placed, at least some idea of an order fill date was possible - that's all.
You have rights to your opinions, as do I. That, after all, is part of why Amercia is unique, freedom of speech.
