Ordered two 100 round cans of belted 50 BMG from SGAmmo. I was supposed to recieve them the 18th as they arrived at my local UPS hub that morning, This morning the 20th, I get a notification that it is being held at the UPS hub for two weeks untl April the 3rd. After trying several phrases with the UPS virtual assistant, I get a message saying my package is being held for customs clearance. It is shipping from Oklahoma to Indiana. WTF.

His last emails he mentioned having a hazmat issue on some of the belted 50bmg stuff. Said it was resolved but you might want to call and see what is going on

The website says they run a phone free buisness and only use emails. Sent one this morning
 
Sounds like a good time to call s&g???
I always had good luck with then, till the commies bannd cross border internet orders:mad3:
 
Yer the Luckiest guy I know..

It HAS TO BE REGIONAL
I'm in 94558 and 1 in 5 ups delivery packages are late/beat.
Mr mailman is a lulu also:beer:
 
UPS here isn't terrible. They get the packages to the house and they aren't banged up. But they are so slllooowww. I can get stuff sent same time in 2-3 days USPS, sometime up to 7-8 days for the same distance UPS
 
No further explaination?
All I got was a notice it was out for delivery. Lol. I have had this happen before with FedEx where a bunch of prodding starts happing from the seller and all of a sudden it just shows up.
 
What the point of ordering on belt if you have to de link? Is it cheaper that way or is that just the way the stuff comes?

Being it is military surplus it is cheaper that way. If I buy it like that, I can get it for $3 a round. I have found some Israeli stuff that comes out to $3.30 a round that is separate in 10 packs in a tin.

I think ups auto generates an answer to some delay/loss of data by throwing a dart at the list:laughing:
I'm glad you got it.
+2 on therapy value of delinking those beauties :usa:
 
I think I would have to leave some linked to throw over my shoulder to wear!! Be good for when the daughters boyfriend comes over!
I've always considered that the proper time to SLOWLY sharpen big knifes/bayonets at a brightly lit kitchen table while asking them what their intentions are... Delinking never would have crossed my mind, Who knew???:beer:
 
I have now recieved 3 more 150 count 50 BMG loose in tins and got them within a few days. Supposed to get another 150 count tin tomorrow. As someone has suggested, I wonder if it has something to do with ammo being belted. Getting my inventory up before the election!

how much 50 ammo do you go through? :laughing:
Looks like enough to get the party started. I know a farmer that bought a pallet of 50. $20k for a while fawking pallet a few years ago, I'd hate to think what it costs now. :eek:

Right now my inventory is 1016 rounds. $3353 worth. Guessing November is going to be like 2020 so I am stocking up now.

1k rounds will last a while unless you're belt fed.

I'm with you, I'm starting to buy more now again too. Wish I'd have gotten divorced 10 years ago, I'd have a real stockpile. :laughing:
