Might be in a pickle
bk09:
Got a voicemail from Fedex today saying my TC Venture I sent in for the recall is due to be delivered in Lincoln tomorrow. So I figured I would save myself some trouble with the apartment complex office staff and have it kept for pickup at one of the Fedex stores. As soon as I submitted the form to keep for pickup I realized someone has to be 21 to sign for it. Sadly I fall about 4 months shy of that wonderful age. I am probably going to head over there in the next few minutes and see how big of a problem this will be. If I have to get someone who is 21 to sign can I get any volunteers to help me out if need be? Going to be held at the Fedex Building at 3600 N 20th st sometime tomorrow or the next day.

Well just got back from Fedex and after about 15 minutes of them all asking each other what to do some lady said the person has to live at my address when they sign. This may be a problem since my roommate who is 21 has been in the process of having his name changed and I don't believe his drivers license matches what our lease says. (the lease is to prove he lives here) Frustrating as heck, why can't Smith & Wesson use UPS, they are way better at being helpful in situations. Sorry for my venting... Haven't had my baby in my arms in almost a week and just want her back :(

Why would you need to be 21 if the package is addressed to you? That's an interesting restriction, for sure.

Pretty sure it has to be 21 since it is a gun being shipped directly to someone, helps make sure the driver doesn't leave it on a porch somewhere. If I would have known all this I wouldn't have sent it in for the recall
DaveB:
As far as I know, you only have to be 21 to buy a gun. I don't know about signing for one, but I wouldn't doubt that you can't be a minor to do it.
