Also Postage and handling costs need to be worked out directly with Gunnut. I am not responsible for postage fees.

FOR THOSE SENDING GEAR IN.
Anyone sending gear in for these tests needs to Email me, (don't use PM), and tell me:
Who ya are. (Username here and real name.)
The date you sent the gear.
Your addy to return the gear to.
And a detail list describing what you sent Gunny.
It would be a good idea to put gear in a ziplock bag with
Personal info and details on the bag with a sharpie. (sharpie the parts if you want to).
Or put a unique mark with sharpie on part for ID purposes.
All of this info needs to be included in your email to me.
Please be sure to give me your mailing address in case gunny
Needs a back up so he can get the parts back to you once the tests
Are complete.
Gunny, when you get the gear, email me what you got so I can cross reference
And confirm. Anything else?


Almost everyone has a digital. It might be a nice to have a pic or 2 of the items for id purposes and to be able to later post what it looks like with it's performance.

Noted and added to instructions. Thanx!
So far, I only have one person who has contacted me. Hoot, I got it covered.
Who else?
Shoot me an email WHEN you drop your gear to be tested in the post.
Pics are fine. Please try to stay with JPEGs. Iphone pics are okay too.

I boxed up (Small Priority Flat Rate) the CCWS carrier in a ziploc and will drop it at the post office on the way home from work tomorrow. In a smaller ziploc, I included a pre-printed shipping label and (New Rate) Priority Mail Small Flat Rate Box return postage along with a copy of the email I sent Robin with the details. I did not seal the box yet in case either of you need something else included. I'll check before going to the post office tomorrow.
