I try to support my LGS's as much as I can based on availability. Unless it's really a high ticket item, if they're within 15-20%, I buy there. Sometimes even when they're not. That said, I am super thankful for places like MidwayUSA that have stuff I need that my LGS can't get, fast shipping, great customer service to me, excellent support and how to videos, as well as loyal supporters of the NRA and various hunting related organizations and activities. I see a lot of bashing on them in this thread. To each his own, but I've probably spent less than $4000 there in the last 25 years and yet I've had Larry P answer the phone more than once and have talked to him more than ten times. In my book, he's a great guy making tough choices between price and availability. I doubt he's going to retire soon because of record profits in the last year or two. As has been mentioned, shop where you're happy. I buy a couple other places online, but Midway is always one of the places I check first. Sometimes they're pricey and I pass, but I still respect the business, Larry operates a benchmark business. First class operation in my book!
