Best Range Bag
- Thread starter SMagee
- Start date
No better bag than the Midway one. It is well constructed and has ample room for just about anything. On sale it typically sells for $40 and is well worth it. Should mine ever fall apart i will quickly buy another one.
I just picked up the Midway bag at the tail end of the $39.99 sale. I've used it once so far and loved it. They also have a smaller version which is $39.99 regular price. Here's a detailed review of the smaller one: http://xavierthoughts.blogspot.com/2009/02/midway-usa-compact-competition-range.html

It holds all my eyes ,ears, ammo, misc parts, staplegun etc. I Have had 2 pistols a 50 cal ammo can(full of ammo) an ar lower and an Nef reciever and more ammo in the bottom.
Imo best range box for the money.

I've tried ammo cans,tool bags,backpacks, and milk crates and my last purchase the Midway bag. Great bag, loads of space. Gets real heavy quickly when loaded up with a days worth of ammo and gear.
All of these methods have worked,some better then others. My next investment will be the Fat Max.
A couple of years I found this in a K-Mart (first and last time I was ever in a K-Mart) for $20:

Range days, I have my Midway bag (jam packed), big plastic box with cleaning stuff, spotting scope box; ammo can or two, and this cart is indispensible.
Also used for humping boat stuff during the summer and humping radio tools and computers in the winter. Mine is three years old and has been out in the rain and snow, hot and cold, and rumbling around in the back of a truck. Still looks and works as good as the day I brought it home.
Even at twice $20, I highly recommend it.

I have one of the Stanley rolling boxes smaller than the Fat Max. Bought it as a proof of concept after seeing EddieCoyle's big box at a shoot. I found one on sale at Home Depot for $15. It won't haul everything that I ever bring to the range, but it's easy to toss around, even full. I added a lock hasp on the lower compartment, too.

I use the free NRA bag, it's OK but I do bring a seperate backpack containing 1-2 hand guns to my range.
I got the midsize bag and love it. BUT it holds too much stuff. Damn bag weighs way too much for my wife to lift. Would highly recommend.
