I purchased a rather expensive accessory from Utah Airguns. It was shipped via FedEx and required an adult signature. I received a notification that it was out for delivery today. Our dog goes berserk whenever he hears a delivery truck, so when he began to bark I pulled up our security cameras and waited for the FedEx driver to come to our door.

After 5 minutes of rummaging around in his truck, he backed out of the driveway and left without delivering anything!

Hope they locate the package and make another delivery attempt :unsure:

As a retired UPS driver, I know exactly what happened..............either the loader placed the package in the wrong area of the truck, or it was loaded on the wrong truck. I hate to think how many times that happened to me. Worse is when the homeowner comes to the truck, all excited that their package is there, only to be disappointed. It sucks, but it happens................

Or it was the end of the day and the item was heavy and the driver was lazy. Pulls in driveway so the handheld computer shows him there then puts in the no one home exception. Have seen that numerous times. Hopefully not the case but you never know. What did your tracking say at the end of the day Michael ?

Many years ago we were working in the public offering of the company I worked for (now I am retired).

The day after a dead line for a filing to the market values authority we were expecting some signed papers from people on road show. We were expecting with anxiety those papers.

I went to the security gard of the company and asked him if the delivery company did not left the envelope we were waiting. He asked me that he rejected the envelope because he did not understood that was for the company.

I had to call the Director in Mexico of delivery company, explained him that that delivery was extremely urgent and that the deadly in filing would cost millions of dollars.

Finally they told me by which street the truck with the envelope would be passing.

We drove there and stand at the middle of the street to force of he delivery company truck to stop. In that moment the driver received the instruction and gave us the envelope. We were able to made the filling on time.

For the RAW? I saw they were making them for the Crown too, but never seen any Crown versions in the wild, only for the RAW. This has tempted me for a while too, as I love them for bowderburners.

Yeah this one’s for a RAW. I see they offer it for the Crown, but have yet to see one in person.

Michael, give Allen Zasadney a call!
He built me this awesome RAW .22 with his shroud.
Imagine how awesome it would look in the chassis with the AZ custom shroud.
The rifle is incredibly quiet.
He uses FX Superior liners because he finds them to be exceptionally accurate.
This rifle used to be a .35 caliber, and Allen did his magic to it.
Here’s 20 shots at 100 yards 18 grain JSB.
