Yep, it's one of those uber secret Executive Orders that only the President and Alex Jones knows about.zoom6zoomQuote:
I wonder if the BATF exerted any pressure on Midway to get them to drop the discount.
I honestly can't think of any reason ATF would care about a retailer giving a discount. Especially if they don't sell firearms.

Says who?Balrog .....ATF wants to reduce the number of 03 FFL holders...
My dealer account lasted most of a day. As you know, promo codes cut deeper than dealer pricing. I had the MWUSA account before I had the license but when they told me that I couldn't use a promo code on dealer orders, that was the end of it.I recently told them to take away my 'dealer' pricing because I was losing out on free shipping and other promotions.
Midway started losing my business years ago when they did away with shipping for minimium of $25.00
Then a few years later I put an order in and tried to order a new printed catalog. I couldn't find them anywhere on the website. I called and asked about a catalog and the representative said they are no longer printing them and the previous catalog was their last one. No warning of course on ceasing the printing. I would have gladly paid for the catalog but that option doesn't exist.
While Midway raised prices (like most dealers) I stayed with Brownell.com. A lot of dealers and web dealers tried to gouge the public but Brownell's has been cool. When the prices doubled they stayed close to the old market prices. I always suggest Brownell's because they were always on our (the shooter) side.
+1. They took much better care of us than cheaper than diamonds.Yeah, I mean shipping should be free, it doesn't cost anything does it?
Midway will continue to get my business before just about anyone else, I think they showed during the great scare of 2012/2013 they are about the most honest and reputable people in the business.
Most places are still around $19-$25 on AK mags. That's not the same as the gouging that CTD did.Midway participated in their own 'price gouging.'
Heck, they are still selling surplus AK mags for $25 a pop. Before the scare, military surplus AK mags were going for $10 - $12.
