    Seriously though, I wouldn't be surprised if the FFL or an employee of his stole it. The fact that he has no info is sudpicious in itself.

    Long story short. Wanted a stripped lower during the panic, the only one available was in Maine (I'm in NH). My friend was going to the shop to buy one for himself so he picked up an extra one to help me out. After some research we found that he couldn't just private sell it to me, because it would be crossing state lines.

    He went to his ffl and had him ship it to my ffl, but was in a rush and didn't get tracking number/insurance on it.

    12 days later it has not arrived at my ffl. Sooo what should we do? I've never purchased a firearm over the internet or had one mailed to me so i'm new to this aspect.
    USPS instituted free tracking on Parcel Post and Priority Mail this year. There should be a tracking number for it.

    Ok guys, heres the update. Thank you all for your help.

    It arrived after 14 days (musta got lost in winter storm nemo or whatever they called it). It also ended up being a misunderstanding between me and my friend. He said he would send it from his ffl, but his ffl told him as per federal law he didnt need to send it FROM a ffl only TO a ffl. So thats what he did, and he didnt insure or track it. But it arrived at my ffl in one piece and the transfer was done. So long story short, no ffl screwed up. Just a painstakingly long wait on the mail.

    I've given up and ship everything insured - even if it's under the list value (Sure, it's a $3000 computer, but a $500 insurance is enough to motivate USPS to find it pretty fast)

    Found out this myself after shipping some M&P 9 parts last week. Was glad to see the receipt now comes with a tracking #.

    I have been dealing with similar issues with USPS. They used to be great. Not so much anymore...
    Tell my tale to those who ask. Tell it truly; the ill deeds along with the good, and let me be judged accordingly.
