GC, always send Browning parts by UPS, not USPS, too damn expensive to replace. [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

Yeah, thats xcatly the reason i aint never sent mine out! bwhahahahah. Sheez, I didnt even know till a year ago you could take a trigger out of a gun. Robert figgered out to take his bolt out, and I figgered how to take my trigger out, so between the 2 of us, we could clean a gun, but still rarely did. travis

Once you start shooting a slack free trigger it is like what they say about heroin or teenage girls, you can't quit, and you don't wanna quit, either. [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

GC,
Hope your trigger finds it's way home. Maybe the pony express guy got robbed by the indians. Last time UPS lost something of mine, I had it insured for $400.00. I had to produce my receipt before they would pay up. And I got the $375.00, not the $400.00 that I had the parts covered for.

I learned that valuble lesson a long time ago. If you ever have the option of dealing with a govt entity as compared to a private entity. Go with the private. Im not saying the private sector doesnt screw up but their track records are usually much better.
