Ok, I'll take all that stuff out, but I have no other box for it, other than the original box. (Not sending my precious away in anything other than the plastic box with the nice foam bed, in bubble wrap, in another box! LMAO.)I’ve always sent just the gun (mags if the issue was mag related) and nothing else. I’ve always used a plain box and padded the gun well. Last one I sent in, I even removed the grips first. They have no need for the original case, fired rounds, manual, etc.
The original grips were icky and I don't care if they ever come back. I'll slap the VZ ones back on the minute it gets home! Right now they can adorn the .45, till I figure out how to turn its original Springfield ones black instead of wood brown.
