...but we're not recording personal data...

[War-Buff]

Dear Customer, As of June 28, 2022, Fed Ex implemented a change in their shipping procedure; ID scanning to be required for adult signatures. Their scanning technology will: Capture the recipient’s name associated with the ID and auto-populate the first initial and last name. Confirm the recipient is 21 years or older. Their software does not record any other personal data (e.g., driver's license number, phone number(s), birthdate, home address, etc.). See more information about this here. Due to a change in policy from our freighter, SIG SAUER is implementing a change in our shipping procedure. As of 1 September 2022, controlled items shipped via Fed Ex will require the following: Adult Signature Required Scanning of driver's license in order to verify age upon delivery If the recipient refuses to show ID as proof of age and signature, SIG SAUER will consider the shipment as refused, which could incur restocking or reshipping fees. We appreciate your assistance in ensuring we are all in compliance with these new industry shipping protocols.

Sounds like they better get ready to switch delivery companies. This will kind of be a backdoor way to register or track used gun parts that are sent for repairs. Thats if the government gets the data, which they will if they just ask for it.

I ship all my stuff to the FFL that requires a signature. We're not home alot. Just easier.

 

[DAS HUGH!]

Yeah. I meant to say "gun parts". I edited it. SIG is especially unique to this I'd say because they have such modular "guns". But if you order a whole pistol minus its FCU to your house it's not even a gun technically. It's just parts. Or supposed to be anyways

I agree with you.

I'd hope SIG wouldn't send you one directly. Lol.
Say you order a red dot, a grip module.
One side of me says the government knows you're buying gun parts, which means you have guns.
The other half thinks that sig and FedEx are just covering their ass from lawsuits.
Could be a mixture of each.

Hmm, I wonder if there is a link between SIG implementing these new requirements and the huge government contracts they just picked up. Nah, probably not...
