Nobody remembers I'm sure, but I made a topic about how my Remington 1911 broke and I had to send it in for repairs.

Well, everything went fine. Remington covered the repairs even though it wasn't under warrantee. I got a call from them yesterday telling me I needed to have someone over 21 at my house to sign for it when UPS dropped it off. Made sense, I mean it is a firearm.

Well, apparently that was bullshit cause the UPS guy just left it on the porch. Didn't even ring the doorbell or anything.

I mean, worked out in my favor since apparently I was supposed to be charged like 30 dollars for the delivery, but holy shit I thought there'd be way more precautions with mailing firearms.

Really lucky it didn't get stolen. Packages get taken from houses a lot more around Christmas

I had someone here waiting specifically to sign for it because I was at the hospital so they grabbed it right away.

I mean, I live in the middle of fucking nowhere so it's not like that would be a huge problem but it still crossed my mind.

They definitely should have taken it more seriously. I guess delivery guys just say "fuck it" at Christmas time.

Funny I was supposed to wait for a UPS driver today who was delivering a 1911 to my friend's house. He didn't have me sign either.

I mean, as far as I can tell it wasn't actually identified as a firearm on the package or anything so I guess it was just "fuck the signature" kind of deal

It was probably handed off to a driver helper to help the driver make his deliveries. The drivers don't exactly give too much of a shit at this point when they're not allowed to go home until each and every single package in their car gets delivered for Christmas.

Yeah that was probably me, I work for UPS and I just delivered a 1911 today to some rural bumfuck place without getting a signature. I just can't be fucked around Christmas time tbh, things get real busy and we're all stressed out here. Glad it got to ya tho instead of winding up in a 11 year old's hands like last time

Nice deck btw
