Angry Oh my god he has a gun!!!!!!

So I drop off my RIA 2011 Full Rail Gun at FedEx today sending it Arnel at Armscor to have him up grade a bunch of stuff and that is the response I got at the front desk at FedEx.

They had to check their little 3x4 official FedEx card to figure out what to do with my gun.

I brought the gun to FedEx in the original plastic case and a box of parts. The girl behind the counter said that she could not pack the gun for me But she did pick up the case to see what size box I needed. She called every person in the place to ask what she should do with my shipment and of course everyone had their opinion. But in the end she default to the 3x4 FedEx procedure card.

It end up costing me $120 but it will be well worth it when I get the gun back from Arnel.

Mike, use UPS next time, a lot easier procedure.

I went to FedEx to ship some ammo and they gave me more forms that I could carry to fill out and bring back.

I took the package to UPS, printed out all the info on the computer there, paid and left, that easy!!!

Mike, I also meant to say congrats on shipping your RIA to Arnel!!!

I was getting ready to build another RIA Longslide but the refrigerator just went on the blink and I have 4 dogs to take to the vet next week to the tune of $230.00 each plus $285 each for 2 of them to be neutered!!!

There goes my gun money for the month!!!

It is cool that you are thinking about a new LS.

You will have to start saving again.

I can not wait for the new mod's to my 2011.

I have been carrying it lately, I am already missing it.
