Figures above are as disclosed in Midwest Shooting Center's most recent FDD (registered 2024). Source: Minnesota Dept. of Commerce — CARDS franchise registrations · filing 32040-202407-07.

Midwest Shooting Center franchise profit — what the FDD discloses
Plainly: Midwest Shooting Center does not disclose franchise profit or revenue. Its most recent FDD makes no Item 19 financial performance representation, so there is no franchisor-backed earnings figure for Midwest Shooting Center — any number quoted elsewhere is an estimate, not a disclosure. The absence is itself worth weighing (many other franchisors do disclose), and the full report reads the risk signals Midwest Shooting Center's FDD does contain — fees, litigation, and outlet churn — against peers. For brands that put earnings on paper, see Other franchises with disclosed Item 19 earnings.
Midwest Shooting Center lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)
Midwest Shooting Center's most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2024) discloses no litigation in Item 3. That is a real signal rather than a gap: the FTC Franchise Rule requires a franchisor to disclose material litigation involving itself, its predecessors, parents, affiliates and management, so an empty Item 3 in a current filing means there was nothing it was required to report. It is worth reading alongside the churn numbers — a system can have a clean Item 3 and still be losing franchisees, which is what Item 20 shows.
Midwest Shooting Center closures & failure rate
Before you sign, Midwest Shooting Center will hand you a list of current owners to call as references — and they choose who's on that list. It won't include the owners who quit, got bought out, or were forced out last year. The FDD does report that number, even though the reference list leaves those people off. Below is what Midwest Shooting Center's most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a other of this kind.
The closest thing an FDD has to a failure rate is Item 20 — outlet openings, closures, terminations and non-renewals, reported by the franchisor. Midwest Shooting Center's outlet tables are read directly from the FDD in the full report. The actual closure and termination counts, and how Midwest Shooting Center's churn ranks against other peers, are in the full report.
