Why do you ask? Are you selling some upland shotgun ammunition Jagermeister?

You might as well sell it since you don't hunt and you don't own any double shotguns to actually use it. Did you ever find a 20 ga. Darne that suits your impossible standards of excellent condition at a give-away price? How about the Colt .45 revolver you were also fantasizing about? Or will you continue to go through life as a pathetic internet fake, a tire-kicker and a gun counter drooler?



P.S.-- I didn't really make this post here. I was attempting to e-mail Boer War combat tactics to Russian Agents who are conspiring with Donald Trump to steal elections and make him Supreme Ruler and Dictator For Life. Somehow this ended up here with a single errant mouse click. Happens all the time.

I had to sell one of my guns to make space for another, therefore, I have some ammunition I no longer need. I'm trying to get info on how to best send it to someone who has helped me in the past.

Really Jagermeister? You really needed to make space for another gun? You told us that you only own four guns, and rent that cheap Chinese bolt action .22 rimfire.

Actually, your stories about guns you claim to own have changed several times in the past year or so, so I don't know why anyone would believe that you actually own any guns at this point. This is especially true about the guns you told us you bought, but really only had them on Layaway, and then backed out of the deals. But I believe that you may own ammunition because you are probably like those guys who own Harley Davidson jackets, tee-shirts, belt buckles, tattoos, etc., but don't own a Harley.

Even if you did own four guns, they don't take up all that much space. You told us that two were handguns, so that's even less space required to store them. Are you living in a cardboard box after 8 years of Hope and Change? Are you selling the ammo so that you can afford to buy a kishka to eat? If you're starving, here's a tip... you won't burn so many precious calories if you stop tire-kicking and fantasizing about guns that you will never buy.

I tried looking into shipping ammo last year and the best I could figure out is that it must be shipped UPS or FedEx from one of their central hub locations. The package needs to be marked as a Hazardous materials shipment. The website of each of these carriers have such convoluted and vague instructions I found them useless. There is a number that can be called but I decided the 40-mile trip to ship with a carrier that made things difficult wasn't worth the effort. I will tell you that if you read their info on using a "Drop Box" location, the best I can say is that it is inaccurate.

Throw it in a box, taped it and send it UPS. It's all about the same price. There's no bargains out there. I never had any trouble with UPS, never tried FedEx.

You can't ship something that probably doesn't even exist.

But I can't stop guys from feeding the trolls... I can only expose them as trolls and internet fakes. Jagermeister is a double gun expert who doesn't even own a double shotgun. You can't make this shit up!

It will need to have an ORM-D label.

Fedex Ground was always cheaper than UPS for heavier packages. Also when I'd ship from Atlanta to California Fedex was about a day faster, made the difference of the recipient getting it the same week vs the next week sometimes. It's been several years so I don't know if this is still true.

You can go to UPS and Fedex websites and check prices and transit times to a few locations to get an idea.
