Firearm, ammo sales in MT hit 'absolutely insane' record numbers

One gun and ammo store owner said the demand has been "absolutely insane." FBI has conducted nearly 40,000 more firearm background checks this year in Montana compared to 2019.

I have given quite a few away to my friends with a newly found appreciation for the 2A.
down to the barter system now, tho

When ammo's available again I promise not to deny my inner hoarder...

I was going to get a couple more bricks 22 long rifle the other day but didn't make it to the store where it was in stock. I bet it ain't there anymore lol. Crap hits the fan and we all gotta go wilderness mode, there's a lot of game that the 22 can take down and it is quiet But honestly, my boy shoots about a brick month through his little savage rascal. Surprised the barrel isn't smooth by now.

Bunch of amateurs.

The heaviest thing I moved across the country was my ammo & reloading component vaults.

Same. Guns/reloading/ garage items/ was a heavy trailer.

I always laugh when I see the news about some whacko's "stockpile"...talk about amateurs!

We have moved 8 times in 15 years of marriage... I always used our camper/fifth wheel to move the "essentials". You would be surprised at how many milk crates of ammo/bullets/brass/primers/powder etc.. can fit in the underbelly of a fiver.

Too bad I lost all mine in a tragic boating accident trying to recover my friend's after his boat overturned... tragic...

I ponder the same thing. If a guy with a few hipoints, a stolen shotgun and some .22lr “sniper rifles” have a stock pile, I wonder what they’d say about the commoner who reloads.... or who has a 5gal bucket of .22’s. Lol

Those damn boats, guiding in Alaska I swear I loose a rifle or pistol in the river almost every year. I’ve got such bad luck it’s usually one I bought just before heading out.

Yup, I had enough for me but not to cover all of the grifters

What they call a paranoid survivalist hoarder in Michigan is just a guy who is a little low on ammo in Montana.

I'm telling Mrs45 I need a new 5'x5' safe to put my ammo in. Everyone knows you are not supposed to store ammo and guns together.

All I can say is a buddy of mine just happened to be in a Cabelas a few days ago, walked by the ammo area and they were stocking 6.5 creedmoor. He blew 400.00 on it and he doesn't even own a 6.5 creedmoor. 8 hours later he sold it on-line for $800

Things are getting desperate out there.

Used industrial steel cabinets with locks. Works great!

 

[LuketheDog]

When I ran out of ammo and couldn't buy more I went ahead and sold the guns, too bad, I'll miss them...off to buy some arrows now

 

[std7mag]

I just need more rope.
Appearantly I don't have enough to get the whole way down from a 10' drop.

After 12 years of panic buying you would think we could hit saturation.
