Companies that ship promptly, and those who don't/

Mods - don't know if this is the right spot, didn't think it went in GD since it is parts related.

My experiences with shipping:

Joebob Outfitters - absolute top in my mind. If I order something before noon as often or not I'll have it the next day. Of course I'm right at 120 miles from them. I believe if they have it in stock it goes out that day.

Mapul - has always shipped promptly in my experience. Latest experience was an order last Friday, which showed up Wednesday, less than a week. My only minor complaint is that unlike a lot of companies, they don't send an email notification, so I'm pleasantly surprised when the stuff shows up quickly.

BCM - another prompt shipper, I've bought numerous blem uppers, a new Mk2 upper, a couple of receiver extensions, an upper and other items. Never had cause to be concerned about not having the item in hand promptly. Only complaint, what do they expect me to do with the boatload of decals they put in each order?

PSA - when I first came onto M4C, I read all kinds of horror stories about PSA's shipping, and, of course their quality. Up to this point I've never been stung by either. Case in point, I jumped on what I thought was a good price for .223 considering the free shipping, order a couple thousand rounds on 2/3/20. It showed up today. Previous order was also for ammo, 2,000 rounds of ARMSCOR 55gr.' also free shipping, ordered 01/14/20, received 01/21/20.

Sionics - everything I've ordered from them shipped either the same day, or the next day. Sionics has the easiest to reference invoices/order histories I've come across.

Green Mountain barrels - Looked back over the last four orders I've made with them, everything shipped same day or next day EXCEPT one order I made December 29th, which shipped Janusry 2nd. Damn slackers LOL.

AR500Target Solutions - ship fast, send priority in flat rate boxes, I pity the mailman.

LaRue - when I first started ordering from them I gritted my teeth expecting to wait for the MBT trigger, never have, always bought using the lower cost 'no hurry when avaialable' option and have never had to wait more than a couple weeks. I did have to call and ask about my lower once, but only once.

Brownells - not as quick to ship as most I've listed, but not too slow in my experience.

All in all, My thoughts are that most companies are prompt shippers.

I love Optics Planet (local ish) for almost everything. Supplying Patriots has been really fast for AK stuff. Black Phase Tactical is awesome for clone stuff, both prices and shipping.

I've been doing a lot of shopping lately at Primary Arms. They seem to get my orders out super quick.

Wilson Combat, on the other hand, seems to take a few days to get me a tracking number....

midwayUSA, lightning quick

Gotta place a caveat with Larue. If they have it in stock (which you have to call to find out) they ship fast. But it’s 2020. I don’t want to talk to someone to find out if I have to wait or not.

Like LSHD, I agree PA ships stupid fast.

Capitol Armory - Form 3s are taking just 2-3 days now which is crazy. I ordered a few cans on Monday and they shipped on Wednesday. Amazing.

Arisaka Defense ships lightning quick. Same day.

Silencershop recently took a full month to get a form 3 done for me. I'll try Capitol next time if they have a smoking deal.

Impact Weapons Components always ships right away for me, and always does free shipping.

Placing this in General, enough will see it.

Target Sports USA ships pretty fast. If I order ammo on a Wednesday its pretty common for me to get it on Friday. Now granted they are in CT and I’m in ME, so not all that far but it still seems extremely fast. It might be because I have a Prime membership with them though.
