My husband buys from CMP also. Maybe it depends on the state you are in because Fed Ex will not ship firearms here.
I'm not sure. It may be, but it also may be that they just don't want the bad press and constant heat from the gun grabbers and they choose to appease.
***Who's more trustworthy, UPS or TSA?***
Oh for the good old days of the 1968 Gun Control Act which required all shippers to label gun shipments with a sticker in big letters, "FIREARMS". It made them easier to steal. Just ask former Railway Express employees.
I live in Pennsylvania. I also have shipped rifles to be worked on to a gunsmith and back via FedEx.
Maybe I'm wrong and Fed Ex is the only shipper. Hubby isn't here, but I know he commented a good while ago that one of them doesn't ship firearms anymore. I thought he said it was Fed Ex.
>>But on Aug. 3, 2000, Martin made a mistake. He scanned one of the packages he was supposed to steal, and then manually removed it from the UPS system.<<
I love how they tell how they caught the crooks! IDIOTS!!
