On Bud's not shipping pistols or 12-round mags to someone with a Chicago address, I'm not surprised. On the pistol, I'm sure they are concerned of legal liabilities because it looks like you were trying to avoid the law. I wouldn't sell either. On the 12-round mag, I'm sure they try to keep it simple for staff to avoid breaking the law. Hard to keep up with all state and local laws.

I can appreciate your disappointment and five days does sound a bit long. Still, if they've always shipped promptly until now, I really don't see why you are publicly trashing them.
I've had good experiences with them but I am local. I don't have to worry about that slow shipping department.
