Me too, I have some Ammo coming from Ammoman and a A2 DCM/Varminter upper coming from Bushmaster. All I can do is watch my tracking numbers stay in one spot until some time next week.

Most of the time 2nd day air never leaves the ground. They just hustle it.

Besides, they didn't give me the option for 2day even though it was there screw up that it didn’t get here when it was suppose to. [V] - Sulaco |

It probably would have been cheaper if you didn't need it striped. I mean, it probably looks cool, but plain old mil-spec works just as good. [;D] |

F*ck ya UPS is Union labor. We load thousands of packages into trailers in the middle of the night. The union is the only reason that the management can't work us to the bone, and thus the only reason people stay w/ the company. Last year my shift had a 70% turnover rate in 3 months. Oh well they are paying for school and fun toys. Ah college and ARs go so well together.

I'm reasonably sure UPS moves cargo on weekends. I see lots of brown trucks on the interstate, but they still suck.
I've discovered the best way to send smaller stuff is via USPS priority mail. It's cheaper, delievery in two or three days versus seven plus with UPS. Midsouth and Midway let you choose. Eddie |

red/blue packages move durring the weekend. ground/brown sits. even if its going to the same place. reason is the red/blues drop into a airport (i think they just toss them out as they fly by) and the truck rolls from there to the next point if the next point isnt another flight.

red/blue packages move durring the weekend. ground/brown sits. Everything I receive via UPS comes through the Montgomery, AL hub. I've tracked packages (ground) that arrived in Montgomery on Sunday and were delivered to me (NW FL) on Monday. Obviously some ground shipments move over the weekend. Eddie |
