I ordered a plate carrier from Spiritus Systems on June 14, it shipped out on June 16, and USPS tracking has stated “held in customs” since the 26th. Been over a week now. Anyone have any experience ordering gear from the states/have similar experiences? I understand international orders can take a little longer, and customs would want to take the time to confirm that the “tactical/military” gear can indeed be shipped into Canada but I’m starting to get a little worried. Any information/advice would be greatly appreciated.

A year or so ago I ordered a carrier from China, took like 2 months to show up. It'll probably be stuck in customs for a few weeks
