Thread: 300 Rounds go missing

Problem here is that the real world doesn't nicely line up with Police very black/white ideas of "WHAT MUST HAPPEN". You can't stop shipping firearms and ammo, even for Police. Any time you entrust something to the care of someone else, there's a risk factor that you accept as built-in with that transaction. You can't stop or prevent every risk, without stopping the world from spinning and that's purely impossible.

It would be great to live in a perfect world where no one farks it up at all, but it isn't going to happen (something that the transport agency might want to think about as well!).

I can see the results of this being that firearms related items go on a courier company blacklist - just too much hassle. I know some of the outfits are trying not to handle certain other 'desirable' items and have asked companies not to send them through their networks just because the courier managers aren't confident they can control the service. What that does is almost the reverse of what we want, it concentrates those items in a smaller group of transport outfits - and I know where I am on rural delivery we are seriously struggling with light fingered dickheads following the postie's van down the road and raiding after delivery. The Police seem powerless to stop that sort of crime as well.

For about 30 bucks you can buy a very authentic looking fake out door ctv camera, with a smile your on ctv sticker. Slap the sticker on your mailbox, mount the fake camera on pole near letter box visable as. Might even deter house break in. ( which I assume is the next step up from mail stealing when they get bord of that)
