just curious, how long should it take a "normal" package to get from there to you .. :?: .. now that it is in your country, would your rifle be considered a normal package .. :?:

The guy has to go and get his shipment from Calgary. About a 2 hr drive for him. Then I go get my rifle from him in Lethbridge, about a 90 min drive for me. Rifle will have so many miles on it will need an oil change before I can shoot it. Depends on weather when he goes to Calgary, lots of snow in the forecast this week. Oh well, at least it sounds like the end is in sight some day soon. Will post pics maybe before end of month....
