Misc Firearms Crew IX: In b4... the Ban

[jason_bh]

Damn, that blows!

Fukc UPS! I just tried to ship an upper and apparently the UPS Store will not ship ANY part of a gun, the guy even showed me the policy. WTF!?

Just put 'Machined Parts' on the label.

No need to tell him that it is gun related.

I sent a slide and barrel back to KelTec (back when I had a KelTec). Put 'Machined Parts' on the slip and didn't have a problem.

That's weird. I've gotten both long guns and pistols through UPS. Not to my home of course but to my FFL.

[ZombieClive]

yeah, i called them, as my cart added the items at $29.99, then changed to the original price.

they said it was a glitch, and that the 2 lb tubs are that much, but they are still on sale for $54.99 down from $94.00 or what ever. I said "lol, bullchit, no one sells this crap for $94 dollars, its 2 dollars less than your "sale price" every single day EVERYWHERE else online. bodybuilding.com, amazon, etc. You advertised it as $29.99, then pulled a bait and switch when i went to pay for it. I cancelled my protein order from another supplier because of this deal, now you wont honor it? "

spoke to a supervisor and she offered 20% off. it would have made it $44 bucks, which is a good price, but i told em to shove it, im not giving a dime to a company that will hold their customers accountable for THEIR mistakes.

FedEx will, from any location.

For UPS you have to go to a hub. You can't have driver pickup and you can't go to a UPS Store

Thats what I did last time and the cheeky kunt said "what kind of machined parts?" and I was just like uh umm, I cant really describe it, their just machined parts. He bert stared me and then shipped it anyway. The same guy was there today and I didn't feel like saying the same chit cause I'm sure he remembered me so I said "gun parts" and he said which part? So I said "upper assembly" and he was all "we can't ship that, here's our policy. And it said ANY part of a gun.....so why the fukc did he ask me "which part"? Potato policy of peace!

Exactly...

fuking *******s

brb have to spend $100 to save $20...

no thanks jeff

[Farley1324]

I had my wife take the stripper upper to the UPS store when she went grocery shopping last week (to an MFC guy), and I had it in a Magpul stock box. She called me to ask what was in it, because they asked what was in it, and according to that chain of conversation they had to know what was in it. I just said "machine parts", which they accepted, and I saw on the receipt it says "machine parts per customer".

Like I was going to explain to them that an upper receiver is not a gun.

[JeffB284]

Exactly the same situation as mine.

[ExtremistPullup]

I have all my UPS stuff shipped to my work My upper arrived yesterday with BCM on the side. luckley our ups guy is a good guy.

[R3L3NTL3SS]

Good news though! Bought another gun today!

Found a small shop that doesnt even have a website, that was selling Glock 19 Gen 4's for $579 a piece. I wanted one, but posted the link in here, and while i was on the phone ordering one, some one else from this thread bought the last one!
i wasnt too upset, as i posted the link, and i was glad some one else was able to get it. Also, i wasnt sure i wanted a glock 19, or 26...


Well today, knowing the shop gets their glock shipments in on tuesdays, I called a couple hrs before the truck was to arrive, and said i wanted to purchase a one. He said no glock 19s this shipment, then i clarified i wanted a a glock 26.

he said "well, theres only one glock 26 coming in today, but its not the same price as the glock 19 from last week..."

"it's $559.




HELL YEAH.




So i ordered the glock 26, gen 4, brand new. $559. Also purchased a pierce grips extension for $7.60. Total price, with shipping $586 to my FFL.

and the kicker? Sold a glock 17 used last week, for $630 to the second place bidder. The high bidder emailed me that he misread the auction. I told him reselling it means i risk taking a loss if it ends at a lower amount, that i had to leave work to list this and answer emails, the listing fee, and the fact that i am $635 lighter in the wallet for a week. He could either purchase the item, send me $80 for the aforementioned reasons, or accept a non-paying bidder report to his account. He is sending $80. It was after that, that the second place bidder agreed to purchase. So i made $710 on a used glock 17, and bought a brand new Glock 26 for $610 after shipping and FFL.

today is a good day.

I sent a similar E-mail. My order got cancelled the same day I placed the order, I just figured they'd sold out of the Cookies n Cream flavor and shafted me, but it looks like they're nixing everyone's order. Sent a similar reply yesterday when I got the 'Pricing Glitch' E-mail.

Fuk GNC. Brb I can get 10lbs of protein for $170 with the $20 coupon! Wooo, not.

[chevy72blu]

Anyone looking for a budget light, look at the Streamlight Polytac. I'm impress. I carried it around on a job site for a few months (dropped constantly, including once from 10' or so) and no problems. Its strapped on my AR with a Viking tactics Vtac mount (used a bike tube as an isolator) and its worked well for the few hundred rounds I've managed to shoot since the panic. Finish isnt a Surefire, but I can honestly say that it seems as good as my overpriced G2

hey a55hole quit chitting on my parade! i thought i got a steal of a price, considering todays climate!

[LikeEmThik]

When will it be my turn for in-stock local 9mm.

So I'm gonna be in the market for full size M&P9 pretty soon and I want to pick up a light for it. Anyone have experience with the TLR-1s or the Inforce APL? Thoughts/experiences?

Love my TLR-1s. Switch is super convenient and easy to use for momentary, on, or strobe. I also think the more recent ones are even brighter, so yeah, do it.

[R3L3NTL3SS]

LOL! You did. Anyhting under $600 is amazing right now.

I was just making sure everyone has as many options as possible to shop around.

Speaking of flashlights and batteries...

Does anyone use re-chargeable cr123a batteries? Bitches are expensive to replace, and the standard bulbs burn through them pretty quick. Hell, even the powerful LED lights burn through them pretty fast.
