To our Valued Customers,
It was high noon on the 18th of June 1977 when MidwayUSA opened for business. After a 6-year hitch in the Air Force, I turned my lifelong love of guns, hunting, and shooting into a career. But it takes a lot more than ‘love of the game’ to be successful. For me, it took a loving wife, a supportive family, some intuitive competence, a little business acumen, great Employees, and a bunch of loyal Customers.
It’s been 48 years now since Brenda and I greeted MidwayUSA’s first Customer in that small 1,600-square-foot gun shop in Columbia, MO. A lot has changed since ‘77, but the important things stay the same: Customers come first, Employees are like family, Suppliers are our friends and partners, and we continuously improve everything – period. These days, we’re not able to thank each Customer face-to-face like when we first opened up shop, so please accept our personal thanks for helping make MidwayUSA so successful.
Thank you for supporting MidwayUSA for our first 48 years. It has truly been our pleasure.
Thanks for your business!
Larry Potterfield,
MidwayUSA Founder and Chair of the Board of Directors
