    What would you do? (AKA, would you worry USPS lost the letter?)

    Yeah, I have to rethink how to do these in the future. I've sent many money orders over the years, but never that much money worth at one time. Almost all the money orders I use are for ammunition or gun supplies. I'm going to rethink how to pay for my guns and related supplies in the future...

    Good news. According to USPS, they found the envelope and supposedly it got delivered today. Don't know how they got it there the same day they found it, and I haven't confirmed yet with Sporting Arms that they received it, but I'm hoping it's true. It took 2 weeks, but I'll take 2 weeks over...

    Consumer Affairs called today. They are supposedly going to call the hubs the letter would have gone through as well as the post office it would have eventually arrived at to make sure it's not sitting there for some reason. I don't expect them to find it. They asked me if I suspected foul...

    Idiot tests bulletproof vest

    Really? Makes sense, but I've never heard of that. Is it codified or just standard policy?

    Why does USPS get to charge me $5+ per money order to find out how badly they screwed up and/or to rectify the situation within 60 days? Also, if anybody here is a regular customer at Sporting Arms in Lewisville, TX and knows the folks there, please PM me.

    True. I suppose I assumed that they wouldn't post a video that would support criminal charges against them. Then again, we've already established that there is a neurological problem at the heart of the video anyways.

    Idiot tests bulletproof vest

    I don't get it. How did he not die right there? Did it only break the skin, or did it hit his lungs like it looks like. I assume that's why he was coughing. Just luck that he lived or did I miss something?

    What would you do? (AKA, would you worry USPS lost the letter?)

    Unless it arrives tomorrow, I'm probably going to have to call Sporting Arms and tell them to hold the items until I have my permit to purchase in Minnesota. I was hoping to avoid that by having it shipped to Florida while I still live here, but I leave next Sunday. Then again, if I have to...

    Carl Hiaasen comments on National Park Carry

    I can't say I feel any sympathy for them if that is true. It's not even just the sheer number of anti-gun articles that has led me to dislike it. Those are just icing on the urinal cake that is the Miami Herald. The reporting in general is sub-par IMO. I felt that way long before I was even...

    What would you do? (AKA, would you worry USPS lost the letter?)

    I called again and opened another case number because they keep closing my case without having had anybody call me or gaining any information at all. Haven't a clue why as that makes no sense at all to me. They claim my case has now been upgraded to being handled by Consumer Affairs instead of...

    What would you do? (AKA, would you worry USPS lost the letter?)

    I have all of the receipts. The little green certified mail receipt, the MO top stub receipts, and the receipt from the register at USPS. I put it together as a stapled package just in case. I didn't expect to have to use it at the time. I went to the USPS store I mailed the whole thing...

    Fair enough. It just seems so odd that it's taking so long. Is there a time limit for me to take advantage of the USPS Money Order insurance each MO has? My only real concern about this whole thing is the money orders.

    What would you do? (AKA, would you worry USPS lost the letter?)

    I recently placed an order with Sporting Arms Company in Texas for 3 items. They have 2 items from the order on hand, and have the 3rd on order. It's 2 rifles, 1 handgun. I placed the online order itself on May 20. I gave them my CC# as a guarantee of payment so that they'd hold the items...

    Carl Hiaasen comments on National Park Carry

    I know that in some ways he was trying to be funny, but in the end, it wasn't funny. I think he was trying to be 20% funny, and 80% serious.

    http://www.miamiherald.com/news/columnists/carl-hiaasen/story/1073033.html He gets the facts and concepts wrong and in doing so adds to the Miami Herald's history of poorly crafted articles and editorials that lack any type of real research and focus more on the same old talking points and...
