Reason for a loony purchase of a new rifle. About as good a reason as any, I reckon!!

I got an oil filter like that... just shorter and fatter... kinda like a midget at KFC.
If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

When you did a search with the term Mauser in it everything with Mauser in the title popped up.
Not sure hw this is anyone's fault but your own. Sure, but they should be able to do something better than just telling me tough luck. What, exactly, should they do? Be specific.

Hawkeye, you just hit on one of my pet peeves. A lot of websites expand the search criteria that you enter. Even if you narrow it and use restrictive language, your search criteria still gets expanded. Amazon, for instance, is terrible about that.
GLWS. Yep, that's my point. A search for 7x57mm Mauser should have only offered 7x57 Mauser. If they only had three choices in that, then only three choices should have popped up. It's on me, too, for not looking carefully enough, and seeing x57mm Mauser, and a low price, and clicking on it. I own that. But it's also the damned search function at fault. Particularly in the case of a product that cannot be returned if someone screws up. PS I give them a pass for this because, generally, their service is great. I'm just blowing off steam here. Folks should still buy from Midway USA. Good company.

This past year I have bought a lot of things from Midway. So far my experience with them has been awesome.

Not sure how this is anyone's fault but your own. That's pretty much how searches work. It ain't rocket science. If it was the OP'd know all about it.

Feel free to look into it.

Type in prostate massager in the Googler....scroll long enough and you will be offered a jar of applesauce.
Don't try to stick the jar of applesauce up your ass.
Properly review your order. That is your duty as online customer.

I don't understand how putting the wrong stuff in your cart and not double checking it during the 34 step checkout process is Midway's fault.
