EDIT: Midway shipping is really HIGH

[What Just Happened?]

IIRC, the Midway bag was a ripoff of the CED bag.

http://www.cedhk.com/shop/products/CED-Deluxe-Professional-Range-Bag.html

Someone had done a review comparison of the CED and Midway. There were some small quality differences between the two but unless you were going action shooting every weekend and dragging it around, the Midway would be more than serviceable.

That said, I've owned the Midway product for several years and only had to replace it because someone got sick all over my first one.

They both may be a copy of Shooter's Connection bags. There is no comparison of quality between the SC bag and Midway's. I've got both bags. You can actually put a full case of .223 on a SC bag and it doesn't collapse.

I have the midway comp bag. It's great. It's huge. Only complaint is a zipper pull broke off and they're not replaceable. I got ten 1" key rings and replaced all the zipper pulls and am now much happier.

All great bags! I have the Midway and would get the others in a heartbeat.

while were on the subject whats the best bag for 100$ budget? in terms of quality and durability?

[Synergy]

I am happy with the 5.11



Now that I have loaded it up a few times. I find that its over padded. The structure of the bag is solid. Every layer has padding and that wastes space. Albeit the size of the bag and as full as I have it is heavy. I have some ammo in it and some ammo in another bag.

I like the mag pocket, the exterior pockets holding my cleaning supplies and tools, with my padded gun pouches I can fit barely 4 guns in a side with the removable center pouch.

I was going to order 2 small bags and 2 large bags- called to have then send it by USPS to get a cheaper shipping cost and they quoted me $169.95!!!!! Yes, $169.95!! They said that was there actual shipping cost. Yeah right!

The bag is $40. Quit crying.

Midway bag is GTG.

[Javi]

$100 range bag? Hope it has ammo included.

Even with Midway's lackluster shipping charges, it's much cheaper than that.

Midway is REALLY bad at making the S&H a big profit center..

The bag is $40. Quit crying.

I just find it insulting.. like they think we are idiots.

At 5.11 Tactical they charged me $7.95 for shipping and I bet that bag is heavier..
