If that guy had the sense to keep his yap shut, he could have had a great zombie slayer for the price of a TV.slap Instead, the libtards get to chalk up another one on their score sheet;

Horvitz contacted the D.C. police. They immediately confiscated the box, which contained a semi-automatic Sig Sauer 716 patrol rifle. The police informed Horvitz that the gun was illegal in the District of Columbia

Why can't a shipping mix-up like this ever happen to me?laugh

In the interest of clarity, this was NOT an Amazon error, it was a UPS error. When the shipment for the rifle arrived at the UPS hub, two shipping labels were applied to the box, one of which was for the TV, which was the was the most visible label.

All that having been said, if this arrives at MY house, the STFU Rule applies. I can buy a TV anyplace wink

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

I can see it happening. Years ago it was reported on the news that they had a guy who worked at their hub and had a bunch of mailing labels made up with his name and address on them. Everytime he saw a box with a return address of Ruger, Smith and Wesson or Winchester etc. He would put his address lable on it and it was sent to his home. He received a bunch of guns that way. Until he got caught. I guess he got greedy. As it usually happens that way. I had a beautiful Model 29 Smith and Wesson sent back to me from their warranty service center years ago. I came home from work and there it was sitting on my front porch steps with Springfield Mass, in bold letters for just anyone to walk up and take it.

Besides all that, I'll bet some cop is having a fun time with that rifle.

Check out the dude's fingernails.

Are you saying that "crimson red" isn't the right color to wear with a black 7.62 semi-auto?rofl
