Don't know if I ever posted this but even if I did, it was quite a while ago and after seeing a thread on a car site, thought some might be amused by it.
A good number of years ago, S&W had 40% off sale for military, retired military and I think a few other categories.
So, I ordered another 500 Mag, a 8.375" barreled model for about $825, loved the deal.
Well, I patiently waited or at least as patiently as a shooting enthusiast can be for it to arrive. When it was in my opinion, overdue, I called S&W. They told me it had been shipped a while ago. So I asked where they shipped it to?
They had shipped the exact model I wanted to a guy in Alaska with the exact same name. I lived in Albuquerque, NM at that time.
What are the odds of that happening? Pretty damned high.
S&W apologized and quickly shipped my gun. Gun has been flawless. Don
