We mailed our December 2023 issue of GunNews on the day before Thanksgiving last year. It seems as though someone at the US Post Office was triggered by the cover and decided to make a pallet full of GunNews just fall into the cracks for a few months. Out of the blue, the issue began arriving in the mailboxes of members yesterday – 96 days later.
96 days.
Ninety-six days! That’s some crack service there.
Was it the headline? Or (more likely, in my opinion) was it the image?

They began delivering them yesterday as I got mine. And I also received a bevy of emails and text messages from a whole lot of people that they got theirs as well.
We paid $1,561.63 for the US Post Office to mail that issue and deliver them in a timely manner. Taking 96 days to deliver our date-sensitive periodical is grossly unacceptable.
At the same time I know I might as well as just urinate into a hurricane-force wind if I think complaining to the USPS about this and asking for our money back will achieve anything other than wasting my time and life’s energy.

This is the second time in the past three or four years that GunNews has gone missing. The first time we raised Cain it escalated all the way to St. Louis where I got the runaround from someone there. Until I got a couple of Congresspeople (thank you Darin LaHood and Mary Miller) got involved.
Suddenly, within a few days, the issues arrived. Yeah, it was about three months after we mailed them, but they arrived. It helps to have friends in high places.
