Nope, that isn't the problem. Entered() is correct for a teleport turf, and Enter() usually isn't.

Your code is deeply disturbing. You're using the : operator everywhere, which is really bad. In most of those cases it looks like you should be able to use . just as easily.

But the biggest problem is usr in Entered(). Egads. No no no. Although you did put it in as an argument, what you really should do is give that argument a different name. And make it a type atom/movable, so you can use the . operator.
turf/teleport
  Entered(atom/movable/A)
    A.loc = ...
