Ammo Companies Say Packages Shipped With UPS Mysteriously Go “Missing”

I can tell you from my experience as a loader for UPS, some items are treated that way. It may have slipped out of someone’s hands accidentally, or they just don’t give a damn.

An article a few months ago said that some crazy, anti-Second-Amendment hag took over UPS. Anyway, it looks like we need more properly conservative judges and a new carrier to compete with UPS for hazmat shipments (reloading supplies) and ammunition. Trump 2024!

My guess is that the USPS and/or other government agencies are INTERCEPTING and KEEPING the ammo and that UPS has been ordered to stay silent. The government intercepts packages all the time for one reason or another.

I go out of my way to never shop again with a company who ships items like that, not only because I don’t want my package lost, but for everyone’s safety as well. Cartridges are no fun on a concrete floor when people are walking around.

UPS is Teamsters, if that raises a red flag for anyone.

If I was in the business of selling and shipping ammunition, I would create a shipping account with a public name which suggests nothing to do with firearms. Something like “Hardware Solutions” rather than “Guns-r-Us”.

I recently found an almost full roll of water activated packing tape which had pictures of hardware all over it (screws, nuts, bolts, washers and the like). Someone apparently had this tape custom made. It’s really cool!

So, the UPS drone sees a heavy, dense package with this tape on it, he’s not going to think “ammunition”.

Just a thought.

I am pretty sure they announced they would no longer deliver guns or ammo and that they would confiscate it if shipped. I could have been dreaming but I seem to remember reading that here or The Liberty Daily.

By the way the USPS has a much better loss rate than 33%, so even the government does better by about a factor of 30.

I sent my sister a new iPad by USPS they didn't deliver it, I had insured it so I filed a claim. The postal carrier said they delivered it and my claim was void, no appeal so you are a fool if you think the USPS is honest. No matter the reason the insurance I purchased should have covered it, waste of money.

The postal service has DEFINITELY gone downhill in the last few years. Our previous mailman always delivered to the right address. Now he is retired and we constantly get the wrong mail.

It’s not just my neighborhood, it’s everywhere else these days.

I was trying to receive a generator shipped through UPS and the progress just stopped at one particular warehouse. I went to the UPS warehouse and they told me the package never got there. Through further investigation the warehouse had a few generators sitting there and they just did not bother to deliver them because they were too heavy. Sleazy.
