For Sale PRIMERS!!!!FEDERAL 215 MATCH, 210 MATCH and 205 MATCH FOR SALE!!!!

Good morning Lady's and Gents! Looks like I missed a lot while I was hunting in Mexico. I would like to start off by saying THANK YOU to everyone that participated in the primer sale. It was a vary rare opportunity that I wanted to share with our community. I would also like to say thank you to every ones patience while the team processed and shipped over 400 orders from Thanksgiving until today. We are a small company comprised of mainly combat Vets that put their nose to the grind stone everyday! I would like for ANYONE that has an issue with their order or a complaint with the service they are receiving to contact me directly. Also if you were one of the individuals causing a rift on this page I am glad we could prove you wrong.

We have some other awesome things coming down the pipe so be ready!

Bought a SKLTN action you have on sale. Should be here next week sometime. Looking forward to it.
 
I received my primers yesterday. Thanks @John-Pure Precision

As a side note, I can't stand FedEx for these types of deliveries. They offer no flexibility and blame the shipper. They require a signature, don't allow the recipient to pick a delivery time window or even delivery day, and will only attempt three times to make delivery before returning to sender. They won't hold the package at their hub or offer ANY concessions. If your household works and isn't home during the day, you may run into similar issues as I have in the past with them. On a similar hazmat delivery of primers, they blamed the shipper (I used FedEx website and called their customer service) for requiring such stringent delivery requirements. I contacted the shipper who said FedEx requires the signature and no flexibility for these types (presumably hazmat) of shipments. I had to pay FedEx even more for the shipper to arrange to have the package left at the local hub for me to pickup in person. If I were a conspiracy theorist, I would say this is the product of woke shipping companies trying to eliminate guns and their products. Sorry for the rant, but figured the businesses should know customers frustrations in the event they can ultimately exercise influence on the problem at some point.
 
Unfortunately there's only 2 shipping options. Sometimes I think it's the driver as I've had FedEx leave Hazmat at the door and other times not. I do prefer UPS for HazMat though. UPS will leave mine behind with a signed letter left at the door.

I wish that were the case. Maybe it's part of an insurance value deal, but when I login to my FedEx account, it doesn't let me alter delivery options, and when I call customer service they say the shipper is the only "person" that can change delivery options. FedEx charges the shipper for any changes (such as to pickup at the hub instead of being delivered). To be clear, this time it worked out well because FedEx did NOT deliver during the daytime like their tracking info said would happen and they delivered at 8PM when someone was home. My frustration is my last order (with a different company) they attempted delivery three times during the day when no one was home.

Ultimately, none of this is at all a complaint with thebattalion. As a matter of fact, I've never received a hazmat order as quickly as I received this one (kind of ironic considering some of the order processing grumbling that occurred in this thread).
