I ordered a 39A hammer from them. They sent me a hammer that will not work. I complained. They said my Marlin was probably old. They only sell parts to Marlins newer than 2006. No offer to take back the hammer. No warning that the hammer they sold was for newer Marlins. Be careful if you deal with Midwestgunworks. They won’t get my business any more.

Luck had nothing to do with it ....... but comprehensive reading has helped.

I bought a hammer on flea bay.

The previous owner of my newly acquired 39A bent the hammer so that it would be easier to thumb back under a scope.

I believe MGW should have had the courtesy to allow a return. As it is, they will never get another order from me. If you want to deal with those scum, go for it. Yes, I guess I didn't know there was a difference in hammers. That does not give them the right to have [bleep] customer service.

They sent exactly what was described. The issue wasn't on their side to fix.

I have dealt with MGW many times and they are great to work with, good inventory, fast shipping and offer a MIL/LE discount for those that qualify. Maybe you should read the fine print next time.


Keep moving forward!
