OK, I checked again today (28th October), and the Milano website says "Record not found", or something to that effect.
Has Anyone Received Their Ammo & Mag Loader??

Milano and rebates
I've been waiting since July for the Summer MP 2 rebate. I did speak to Milano a week or so ago and they told me that they are only doing the rebate application processing and that S&W is doing the fullfillment. The reason that Milano is not handling the fulfillment is because ammunition is involved. Milano only validates the application. I suspect this handoff back to S&W is adding a delay. So if you have gone on-line and validated that Milano has processed your application then S&W should have it.

I was wondering about that, a friend asked me that question a few days ago about Milano actually being able to hand out ammo.? Maybe S&W is suffering the same problem we've had up until recently,"Sorry sir we can only sell 1 box at a time". Can you imagine how long that would take, that wold help explain why it's taking so long. Maybe they're getting it from the local W@7m@rt. (didn't want to mention names) Ours is the only store in the entire area that still pulls that ****. Grab a case of ammo off the pallet as they are stocking it and watch the show begin, did it with a case of .22 and they followed me to the register and out to my car but never said a word to me.
Now this thing they keep saying about still processing July's rebates, that bothers me. They told me that back around the first of September, more specifically they were working on mid July's at that point.
Anyway my little secret to keep my mind off it was to buy a M&P15-22 to go plinking, works great!! Or the other option be a single dad with 3 (2 teenage daughters) That'll definitely help teach patience or put you in the psyche ward.. D@mn it, where's my #^$#ing rebate!! J/k

Submitted my rebate on 20 July (ammo, mags, relaoder) received them on 26 October!
Got a FedEx notification 2 days prior to arrival and thought it was a phishing scam. Why because to was from SAW out of Paducah KY. Until the day it arrived I was still trying to figure out SAW...DUH Smith AND Wesson...SAW. Geesh!

I have not gotten mine yet, but there is a Youtube where a guy did and unboxes it. In the process, he shows the return address which was SAW.
Those of us who have had guns shipped back to them know to be Smith & Wesson. He didn't know that. In addition, it did not come from Massachusetts, but from Kentucky, I think.

Do you happen to remember the name of the video?
Well, that explains the Fed-Ex notification I got today... I'll have mine Thursday, 11/2/2017 by end of day.

I submitted the application for the M&P 45 Shield on 16 September (8 weeks). The receipt doesn't have the SN, but I provided it. I don't remember the paper saying the SN had to be on the receipt.
I submitted the M&P 9 Shield on 30 September (6.5 weeks). That receipt did have the SN.
I didn't buy either gun for the rebate. I didn't even know about it untill after I bought the 45 Shield. I really like both guns, and will just wait and see what comes of it. So far, it's "no record found".
In the meanwhile, I'll shoot the guns.

Update: I bought my Shield 9 Sept 30 and yes I was influenced by the Rebate offer.
I submitted the info electronically Sept 5 and got a receipt that it was accepted. We are just short of 8 weeks now and nothing shows up on the Milano website.
I bought my Hankook tires about the same time and within a week I got my $100 pre-loaded Visa card. I see no reason why this process has to take 8-12 weeks.

We bought 5 S&W's during the rebate period. 4 of them with the $75 rebate, and 1 with the mag/ammo deal. We've gotten all of the $75 rebates, but still waiting on the mag/ammo for the last one. I had to send the paperwork in as it did not recognize the gun SN. I called yesterday to confirm there was no issue with it, since it's not shown up on the Milano site, and it's been 2 months. All good, it's approved. Just waiting to be processed.
I agree it should not take them this long to process these offers, but I'm not in any huge rush, either. I'll be happy to get the stuff whenever it arrives.
Loving all the guns, including the Shields. Just great carry guns that we're very happy we bought.

To me seems as I have thought and after watching a vid on the mag loader is 100% useless and awkward and time consuming!
JUNK!
The Mag loader isn't bad, setup correctly it loads about as fast as you can normally. After using one it seems more useful for someone who has weaker fingers and has a hard time loading a mag. My youngest daughter has a hell of a time loading a 17rd clip by hand and can do it in about 20 seconds with the loader. The biggest thing is making sure the clip is in correctly, if not you will fight it.
My rebate items were delivered today and were shipped from KY. I did not have to sign for them as the email indicated.
When did you apply for your rebate?
