About eight years ago I had Bachelder's do some work on a very nice 16 gauge hammer gun. When it was done and ready to ship Brad called me to say I should see it in two days.
After the fourth day of waiting and seeing through tracking that it had been delivered.... But it had NOT arrived at my address.
I called Brad and told him about this and he suggested it may have been stolen from my doorstep like is often read about these days... But before we hung up I suggester he go to his shipping people and find the address to which it had been sent.
Surprise Surprise.... It had been shipped to an address in New Mexico or some such...
But I still didn't receive it until three more weeks. Strangely it was undamaged.
