I ordered some ammo from Sportmans Guide on the QT. Everything is fine untill they realized that they didn't ding me enough for shipping.
They left a message for me to call them, that the wife heard before me, as I work 12 hr nights and wasn't out of bed yet. Although the message didn't say what the items were, it did say that the shipping weight was 330 lbs and that's all she needed to hear. She just knew, and I was bagged  .
No consequences, but wished to get it done without disclosure. |

"But honey, there is a possibility that his executive orders could ban internet ammo sales and importation of ammo, I had to , it's only hedging my bet"
She was good with it, mostly because she doesn't know 330 lbs=$2,700.

I had three shipments delivered this week. UPS guy usually runs at 5:30 while the wife is gone. He ran every drop before 10 am. Busted on every shipment.
On the bright side, I'm loaded up with mags and ammo purchased at pre-panic pricing. On the down side, I don't want to shoot any of it, so I need some reloading equipment now. |
