I think the bag is lined in bubble wrap as well...at least appears to be. ETA: I’m tagging this old school Jerry Springer drama...must see damage pics.  |

Quote HistoryThe bag appears to be in perfect condition. It was probably damaged before it even left Colt. Exchange it for an Aero upper. They ship in a box. |

I don't know, I have possibly owned more Colt shit than many people and I would venture a bet the "scratches" that are on that upper were on it when it left Colt.

Packing at a lot of places went south after some master salesman talked them into using air pillow poppers that never survive the trip and never keep the contents form moving around. Cheap shipping has given rise to bendable breakable items being shipped in mailing bags with no protection.
On a almost happy note I got an email from Brownells I would be receiving my package today but I guess they forgot they Brownells shipped it. When I checked it is not even at my post office yet. |

Quoted: received a Colt upper, came in a plastic bag. no packing at all. scratched up etc. called, two hours on hold. then when i finally hear a voice it gets disconnected....  I've seen parts arrive from Colt, fresh out of the box, shipped just like that. |

Sounds like a Colt problem. If it was a premium upper it would have been bubble wrapped and put in a box before it left Colt. |

I ordered a stripped colt upper receiver from them years ago.
The upper arrived with massive blemishes in the finish - like 1000X times worse than any PSA "blem". Called customer service and they said - "that is how we get them from colt" - returned it for a refund. |

Maybe not the Brownells from 2 years ago, but pretty much the same as last year. All in all they pretty much have the worse fucking shipping of any company I purchase anything from. I wanted to support them then, and still tried one more time this year. And for my effort I got 2 weeks shipping on a fucking padded envelope.
At this point, if I can get supplies from anywhere else, I will - just to avoid their shipping. --- Last year I decided to build as couple of AR's. So I joined their Priority Club for $50. Before that their shipping had always been adequate - not impressive, but adequate. For a club that promised 2nd day shipping on most items - I don't think I got a damn order in less than 10 days. Multiple orders got locked up in the computer for a week processing without even getting shipped. So that expired about a month ago - so I decided to pay for shipping this time and it was 2 weeks. I have complained before - that asking $50 for shipping and then not being able to process most of my orders in 7 days (not ship, just fucking process). was ridiculous. This last order was the last fucking straw. |

Well, a good friend of mine had to replace my MagPul Backpacker T/D stock today. (His f*cking dogs ATE the one that he ordered last week from Amazon that arrived today, as it was supposed to. It was an early B-day present for me.) He ordered it from Brownells. Supposedly, it will be here in 4 days. I guess that we get to see how long it takes for it to show up.

So is there damage or not OP? You started this thread claiming there was damage due to how your upper was packaged yet you have failed repeatedly to provide any evidence of said damage.
