I hate when that happens.

Wrapped up a bolt gun this morning in my usual heavy brown paper, grabbed a new U Line rifle box and packed the gun nice and tight just the way I like it. Weighed it, made a label and put it by the office door to wrap another. When I reached for my tape gun there was the bolt for that rifle on the table. At least I caught it before UPS had it.

Hate is a pretty strong word.
Or you find the envelope with the buyers contact info laying on the table....
Quit taking things apart before you sell them
Ohh, yea,,been there. 🤐
Getting old and loosing your memory like the rest of us
nothing like a super pack job and there on the table a bolt ,mag dang cut open the box😕
Hey Ricci.......
At least you make the good decision to remove the bolt before shipping.
How many people have left the bolt in.........and ended up with a stock that was snapped in half at the wrist???
Good move! 😉
Funny how people think that the bolt comes with the gun! They all should know the bolt is extra! 🤣

I would have shipped the bolt separately. I know it adds to the shipping cost, but if some shipper looks to steal the rifle they might leave it as there's no bolt.
I leave the bolts out so I can get more rifles in a safe. Then I put the bolts (with tags) in a different safe.
I was shooting my 32-20 and couldn't hit a thing. after the third shot I checked the ammo - 25-20!!! Both rifles are identical and I had grabbed the wrong one. Oh, wanna know what they are? Savage 23-B and 23-C.
Elubsme- well, they are 32/20 cases now! Just headstamped wrong.
