Hi River Ridge LA-rebate question whine

[phoebeisis]

Hi
Charlie from River Ridge la-suburb new orleans.
New here-
I have owned many many S&W(I'm 66-old)
auto pistols 59 6906 S&W M&P 40
revolvers-too many to list-multiples of most
60(several) M19 M29(many N B 3" 4" 6") M57 M586 M63 M66 -probably 30 revolvers
Saw the $75 rebate for the S&W M&P
Delivered all injust $317 for a S&W -then $75 back-meaning $244 for a S&W how could I resist-bought it
not bad-fair amount of recoil with 135 CORBON-not horrible but noticeably more than 180 Hydra shock-
trigger not too bad-improving-
so satisfied with the pistol 7 shots tiny package-lotta bang for the buck

But did online rebate 5-15-17- at end of July get a letter saying receipt not good enough
so I send-via mail-a better receipt-about 8-1-17
Still no $75?
When will I get my $75??
Or will I get some sorry no money or just get NOTHING??
Is this rebate company some sort of scam deal( maybe they get a bonus for Not sending $75??-for rejects)
Any guesses-it has been 2 months since I re-sent the required receipt-
Thanks
Charlie

Welcome from Wisconsin, Charlie!

It seems to be that when I sent in for the Nation's Finest rebate about 6 years ago it took less than a month to get. I want to say 2-3 weeks.

Snuffy-ha,ha re-bait good one!
LEO- yeah I hate them too-send in a $5 rebate form for oil-waste 50 cents and the drive to the post office-pure chance actually getting-the $5 and I usually forget about it
Now $75-I won't forget about
Funny I only have 10 guns now-amazing 10 guns is "just" and only one S&W revolver(638) I really need another

Thanks again

I will post when-if-the rebate arrives.
Pushing 2 months
which reminds me-dog-Arty-Artemus(sic) needs her heart worm med
She is a retread greyhound that acts like a beagle(friendly and very food aware-and almost everything is food)

Oh-below is a HUGE aside-guessing many of you have pets-dogs cats-JUDGING FROM LOCATIONS-and
Anyway dog cat owners-you can get 400 doses heart worm med for $2
IVERMECTIN-for $2 plus shipping-it is a HORSE Boticide-maggot like parasite

some of you are frugal and have pets-and have accurate scales- old fashioned balance is best-reloaders will have them-reloaders are careful and can weight .1 grains
6 grams tube of 2% = $1.87 plus shipping-
6 grams 6,000,000 micrograms- per tube(horse dose Boticide meaning an internal insecticide)
6,000,000 micrograms at 2% active drug (actually 1.87%)is about 100,000 micrograms of Ivermectin
250 micrograms is the monthly dose for a 70 lb dog-so 400 doses
but Ivermectin has a high therapeutic index
meaning it is pretty safe
somewhat Toxic dose is 16 TIMES actual dose-(4 grains)
so if you give 1 grain(60,000 micrograms) of the gel-you are giving 4x the dose for a 70 lbs dog-it will be safe-
Be careful-it will be a little bead of about 2-3 mm-much smaller than a BB
