    Shipping Firearm with Fedex tracking question

    Having a gun sent back to me from manufacturer. Fedex tracking shows it left Indiana and made it to California in 40 minutes. Should I be concerned? It was shipped 2nd Day on Friday.

    This is what the website shows.

    9/13/2014 - Saturday
    5:25 pm - At destination sort facility. ONTARIO, CA
    4:45 pm - Departed FedEx location. INDIANAPOLIS, IN
    11:06 am - Arrived at FedEx location. INDIANAPOLIS, IN

    The tracking systems can have bugs. When I had my LaRue shipped to me the tracking was fine until it hit Oakland and was scheduled for delivery the next day and all night through the next day it was saying it hadn't departed, had me thinking the worst.

      No problem.

      3 hours 40 minutes. Ontario airport is a fed ex hub. As soon as the plane landed it arrived at the sort facility.

      3 hour time difference.

      It will arrive Monday.

      Fewer people are killed with all rifles each year (323 in 2011) than with shotguns (356), hammers and clubs (496), and hands and feet (728).

          It is possible. I know Glock uses an overnight shipping option, and Fedex tends to deliver relatively fast.

            Right. Indianapolis is on Eastern time (EDT this time of year). California is PDT.

            Shipping converted to PDT is
