Not to interupt this thread, but Brad, you mentioned someone had suffered damage to a gun sent via Registered USPS Mail. The part that gets me is the statment made saying that he didn't get his money back even though it was insured!

I have heard UPS, and other carriers deny their claims, but never heard of a piece of Registered USPS Mail insurance being denied. Perhaps I took your statment wrong. Please tell us more if indeed they denied his claim. Very interesting and sad indeed...
