On the box of my Speed, it has a sticker on it that says "TEAM GUN".  Does this mean that someone screwed up and sent a team gun to a dealer and i got lucky.  Or does this mean absolutely nothing.  Just curious.

Just get some from the school nurse...I know she has like 5 sticks in her drawer.

Umm, you probably got somebody elses 05 speed. I don't think there would be a sticker on the gun before you opened it. If you bought it not from a website or local shop, but off ebay then you prolly got a used one. If they said NIB they lied... I mean I just couldn't imagine a sticker coming standard on a $1,000 gun...
yay do i win?

the sticker wasn't on the gun itself.  It was on the outside of the box itself and then there was shrinkwrap over it.  The gun is definitely new.

Congrats on your purchase.  It appears you might have received what was meant to be a team gun, though I have never seen that sticker on a box before.  Anyhow, air it up, break it in with a few cases, adjust the LPR, and throw on a volumizer, and you're set.  If you need questions answered, AOG is a helpful resource.  The 05 speed has an awesome trigger, so you will little if any adjustments at all.

It does not mean anything at all. WDP just may have amde a mistake and shipped you a gun that was meant to go to one of their Sponsored Teams. It does not mean that you have a "Super 05 Speed" or a "Used 05 Speed".

When you have a company that is open 24hours a day constantly milling bodies and making Markers, it is possible to make a shipping mistake...

I would call Angel and ask them. You paid for the gun so you own it.So unless its absolutely top secret info. they'll help you. Probably a run of the mill team order that was cancelled or changed.
