Hello Aim...

Was just wondering about tracking shipments of firearms..... I placed an order on 5/28 for a WASR (order #28668) then received email notice on 6/1 that the rifle had been transferred to my FFL, but have yet to receive any tracking number on my end to monitor its status (yes, I am an impatient bastard and hate the suspense).   Is there any way to get my grubby hands on the tracking#?  If not, no big deal really.  I'll just have to on my dealer to call.

BTW, I just picked up your last SGL31.

Tracking number...That is the one thing I wish Aim did. My dealer wont call me if something comes in so I end up calling every day till it shows up.

You can always call AIM and if you ask nicely they'll let you know when it's supposed to be at your FFL.

Thanks for the update....interestingly, when I called my dealer yesterday afternoon, he told me it wasn't in yet.....strange.  Guess I'm gonna have to roll by there on Monday.

I'm not sure as to what's going on here but I always get tracking numbers emailed to me when things ship, even the stuff with free shipping?

Me too....this was my first rifle purchase from AIM and didn't realize that tracking #s didn't go out with them.  I've always gotten one for other merchandise though.  As you can see, AIMs CS is top notch...

ok, here is the deal,
the Cincinnati office of ATF had a case where some customers got the tracking #s for their packages, went to UPS, got the packages, and never contacted their dealer, kept the guns.....once they figured the system out, they continued to do it for their buddies, finally when the guns came up on ATF searches the system was figured out, customers were prosecuted.....

Now guess whats a hot button at our local ATF office??????   it had nothing to do with us, but now our local branch has advised us not to issue tracking #s to customers.  


WE WILL track them for you and tell you when it will be there, and we will give the tracking # to you once its been delivered    in case that helps the dealer locate it
6/6/2010 12:15:21 PM EDT
[#14]
on packages shipping to you we will give it to you by email automatically ....UNLESS it ships first class mail, then its useless anyway

Wow.....as always it takes a bunch of boneheads to ruin it for everyone else.  Yeah, the rules suck, but what's so hard about playing by them?

Anyhow, I am looking forward to picking both of these rifles up this week hopefully.....assuming my FFL didn't take that WASR I ordered and stick it on his for sale rack.  (J/K of course.)

On that SGL31 I ordered last night (#30235), a delivery estimate would be much appreciated, that way I can give my FFL a heads up and he knows that I know when it will be there.

Should ship today or tomorrow.  Two days transit.  Your dealer should have it by Thursday.

Thanks again.  I talked to my dealer this a.m. about the WASR noted in my OP....said that he has it ready for pick up.

I was SUPER impatient and wanted my SGL31 immediately. I called up Aim and asked how much longer it would be; they said "It'll be at your dealer tomorrow"

I understand why tracking numbers cannot go out, but if you call them and ask, they will give you the date that it is expected to arrive at your dealer.

I just stop by my FFL two days after the charge hits my credit card.  Works every time.
