    People will complain about anything. The driver literally takes a package from the truck to the door, and then people talk shit to them and wonder why they get bad service afterwards. :jerkoff:

    I think it's more of the handlers then the drivers, which is not an easy job. UPS has definitely taken a nose dive over the past couple years. Like @uhplifted said, I haven't gotten a package from them that isn't beat to shit with a half assed tape repair.

    Could still be UPS's issue, maybe an air service, warehouse or truck loading problem, lots of hands touch those packages before the delivery driver. I mean it most likely wasn't dropped off at the shipping location in that condition.

    All that said, UPS is our most reliable and friendly service in my area. Hat's off to you guys. Love some brown santa.

    True. If people don't like it they can refuse it or the driver can. Simple :thumbsup:

    It was saddle bags for the Harley so luckily this package was next to impossible to break, unless they skewered the thing :rofl:
    I don’t even see the delivery drivers 99% of the time. I just catch them on my Ring doorbell literally throwing my packages to my doorstep. I know it’s typically not the drivers fault and the package was likely damaged somewhere before it was even loaded to their truck. But I’ve had a few packages lately from UPS that have been literally dropped from waist height or thrown to my doorstep.
    hard to refuse the package when the driver does a drop and go lol. Luckily my packages that were destroyed were taken care of by the vendor, or @Kanyon71 filed a claim and took care of me.

    I used to like UPS but the last year every package delivered by them has been badly damaged. FedEx seems to be the best for me locally. USPS has been good to me too. If I can select the shipping method when I order something I’ll always pick anything other than UPS now, and I certainly won’t ship with them

    Call customer service and ask for a damage call tag, and the driver will be back the next day to pick up said box.

    It really depends on your body type, belt, belt size, carry pistol, clothing types and so on.

    I usual start with my pistol. Let's use my Beretta as an example. A Beretta 92FS has hundreds of sources for holsters. I want IWB (Inside The Waistband). That makes it down more.

    Now I'll determine where I wat to carry, in this example I'll use strong-side right. So I know I want IWB, strong side right. That narrows it down more.

    I know I don't like clips, because I've had them come loose training and practicing, so I need a loop-type of belt attachment. Belt height now matters at this point of thinking (1.5" is standard, 1.75" is daily carry gun belt thickness and 2+" is police/military duty belt thickness).

    So now I'm down to a belt thickness of 1.5", non-clip and IWB. That makes it down to about 10 manufacturers. Now I order one at a time and carry using each to determine WHAT IS RIGHT FOR ME.

    In my experience, with this example, I prefer the Bladetech Nano IWB for the Beretta 92FS/M9.

    What pistol are you trying to carry?
