What USPS service did you use? Registered as everyone recommends? I would take a shot at summoning your postmaster into court on a negligence suit. One of our members from your state once recommended that an actual lawsuit summoning an employee into court usually stops any argument with a car dealer over service disputes. USPS did not provide the service you paid for. Get them in front of a judge. Accuse the postmaster of negligence.

Sue a Federal employee in civil court for not adequately performing his Federally mandated obligation?... or should it be tried in a Federal Court? Isn't that like suing the Federal Gummint?

Gawd, it could take a decade...

John, I wish you the very best of luck and I sincerely hope the outcome is more than satisfactory for you.

Priority mail (2 to 3 days) with tracking and delivery confirmation.
Tracking states it was accepted and left acceptance facility on day of mailing and has been in route to a sorting facility in the same city of mailing for the past 6 days. (20 minute drive from one to the other)
I physically went to the sorting facility and they have no record of it ever arriving.
I have contacted the superivser for the acceptance facility and they are starting an investigation.
Possibly lost or stolen by an employee. It is in a 38" by 12" by 12 wooden coffin/ craft. Way to big to be over looked. Weighs in at over 23 pounds total weight.
For now I am playing their games and it would appear at their mercy.

I wouldn't say possible but rather "more then likely" !

I "assume" the sorting facility you went o was in the Richmond area and if I'm not mistaken the facility in in the Sandston are around Richmond .

Anyway if that facility is anything like the one in Dullus Virginia I am surprised you found anyopne there that spoke english and could give you an answer of any type !

I've been to the Dullus facility several times over the last 10 years for buisness related things and just let me say . It was a cluster then and I can only imagine how it is now !

You would think they would have security camera's at these sort of facilities. Sorry to hear. I hope it works out.

Good luck getting your gun back. I have zero faith in our post office and ship everything by ups. Their tracking system is out of this world.
