Completely untrue. It is common for me to attempt to track any package with their tracing number and it shows only that the item was received by the USPS. Days go by with no update, then all of a sudden it arrives. No information in between.

As for reading comprehension, maybe you need to graduate 3rd grade. I never said the gun was delivered - I said it vanishes after being left at the post office. If you can get that straight in your skull, we'll move on to why you should avoid dangling your participle.

I shipped a Trojan to Del Grego's and it simply vanished for over a month. The postal manager acknowledged they received it - in fact he was standing there when the clerk took it from me - yet no one knew where it was. We had multiple talks about 'where's my gun?' then one day it simply arrived at DelGrego's.

Same goes for several other guns. I'd say at least 50% of the time the gun goes AWOL and there is never any tracking information.

But I get tired of guys bragging how great USPS is. They've never lost a gun for me, but they frequently disappear into the system for a month or more.....and their tracking system is 100% useless as it shows the gun was received but then no record of where it is.



While USPS is certainly not perfect,and many times the info is not uploaded until the end of day-unlike UPS and FedEx, when the carrier returns to the PO.
If the gun shows it was "delivered" (and by law you should have a signature required)there is indeed a record of where it is! You might well have a reading comprehension problem but USPS tracking is not by any stretch "useless"
