Not trying to vent, but maybe I am. I received my Glock 23gen4 back today after Glock replaced a faulty extractor, which they replaced at no charge (besides the $80 I had to spend to ship the gun to them). Up to this point I would say I have had a pleasant experience. However, how the pistol was returned to me was not. I got my package today not from the FedEx delivery man, but instead from a gentleman I have never met before who lives a couple blocks away. FexEx delivered the package to this gentleman, at the wrong address and they didn't require a signature, FedEx says Glock did not request the package needed to be signed for.
I am sure this has happend before, but the thought of a handgun registered to me being delivered to a wrong address, who could potentially have performed violent acts, I'm floored. My greatest anger at the situation came when the manager from FedEx contact me, he said was apologetic about the situation of "such an expensive item" as that being delivered to the wrong house. With all the thoughts behind this, the cost of the gun didn't even enter into my mind. The thought about some criminal shooting someone and then dropping the gun leading law enforcement to come to me because I am the legal registrant entered my mind, or of some child opening the package and finding a fully functional handgun.
So I am thankful that I it got delivered to a decent guy who did the right thing and returned it to the proper address (I will be buying him a 12 pack that's for sure). But I am thoroughly disappointed with FedEx. I intend on getting ahold of Glock's customer service tomorrow and find out why the heck they sent a firearm without a signature requirement.
