jorge,
You know the board rules, so I hope you have your camera batteries charged up and ready for the pictures you have to post of you shooting the rifle and the targets!

Did you guys hear about the UPS jet from Europe that had to jettison all it's cargo over the Atlantic last night? Lots of stuff gone apparently.

I have a buddy who works US Customs at Hartsfield-Jackson who was telling me last evening about this rifle they seized yesterday. Sounds like a beauty. It was headed to a gun shop in Orange Park, Florida, but had incomplete paperwork. I understand it will be destroyed unless it is "lost in inventory".
Too bad. Someone will be darned disappointed.

Reports say it was a coordinated incident with Somali pirates who were waiting to pickup the jettisoned packages. I understand they're much more organized than previously thought and they're routing them through. Jacksonville, FL, United States on Monday, 09/12/2011 to hide the shipment.

I heard a report about a suspicious package in a UPS truck in Jacksonville, Fla.
Bomb squad was called in and it was destroyed for precaution. It turned out to be an Italian rifle of some type. Mission was ruled a success. They thought it was a double pipe bomb.

I was hoping y'all wouldn't alert Jorge to that. His order got mixed up in customs and Jorge was being sent another Sabatti. What Jorge thought he ordered was actually being sent to a Texas Cabelas. I am on the way to Fort Worth now. Wow I never thought I would get a VC at a Sabatti price

Pipe bombs, laughing...Jorge i hope your Verney Carron will arrive in good condition and that the french gunsmiths had done it well. I know they can be very good but your waiting makes me nervous too.
Regards

Actually my cousin Mel got a job as a Customs supervisor after he lost his job with the TSA. I've already arranged to meet him in the parking lot at Shoney's in Montgomery,Alabama. I'm gonna trade him a Remington 742 with see thru mounts and a world class tasco for 'the rifle formerly known as Jorge's'. It's all legit since he seized the rifle for improper documentation all fair and square and bought it at the hastily arranged semipublic auction. Mel says I can trust him because he's with the government and was appointed by the Obama administration. Who can argue with that?
