[QUOTE="DELACROIX, post: 5385921, member: 49065"] Guns or firearms are [B]not [/B] considered [B](dangerous goods).. [/B] Before this newest mandate they were shipped off counters via [B]next day air..[/B]the reason was to get them to their destination as soon as possible, they were segregated and treated as a high value package. This service level requirement also was needed in order to prevent thief. They had to be going to a licensed gun broker for transfer or repair, not person to person. The manufacturer’s firearm returns can go second day air and [B]are [/B]permitted in our system for delivery. It makes sense because most of the returns are due to some design issues that have a ton of liability involved. If a firearm ends up missing in our system law enforcement has to be called in and an investigation started. Still remember an incident when some part timers or temps were stealing a bunch of guns out of a trailer just before they were delivered to a large gun shop. I do not who was running LP at the location but it was far too easy for these kids to get them off the property. [/QUOTE]
