Walk into this Pawn Shop and ask for a “Saw”
Thanks to a suggestion, we stopped in at DaddyO’s pawn in Billings, Montana
Cool shop, lots of selection.
I am fan of the yellow walls, really lets you see the guns. What do you think ?
They have “real” saws too BTW

What’s so unusual about this Hi-Standard ?
Spent a while chatting with Butt’s Guns in Billings, Montana
Nice shop with a bit of everything you’d need aling with collectables and long range guns
Quite a bit of history with the shop, the original owner was named Butt, and the store’s been passed on a few times, but still in the family
We talked about long range shooting and Optics which is interesting for me because there’s lots of long-range opportunities in Montana, so they know their stuff
We talked a little bit about Shooters in Montana and the 2A situation with shops like this one and the awesome natural wonders, it’s tough not to put Montana at the very top of the list of states

Rocky Mountain Discount Sports
Awesome shop in Riverton, Wyoming
Huge, got some video to show kust how much stuff they cram into one shop
Very nice and helpful staff, and they about everything you’d need to outfit an outdoor trip of any kind
Tons of Guns, all the accessories and support gear
And do yourself a favor, and after visiting head north for a drive along the Wind River… WOW

Wild Gun Shop with a unique flavor
Wind River Outdoor Co in Lander, Wyoming
It’s like a fancygun shop, but with cool people working there
I asked around in town, while visiting, for a good gun shop, and they said check out the shop on the top of the hill
It’s got a bit of everything you’d need on an outing in Wyoming
Perfect place to grab that gear that broke, got lost or forgotten at home
They also have the cool Wyoming logo shirts, hats and stickers I posted earlier today (Those are in house designs, I’m told)
I grabbed a bunch of stuff for our Patreon supporters, THANK YOU
Lander, WY is an AWESOME town, and home to the @NOLSedu National Outdoor Leadership School (or at least a lot of NOLS people are around )

Checked out a small, but cool shop outside Minneapolis, Minnesota called
Get Guns Now
Some inventory on hand, and many custom orders & transfers
They have some ammo too, and a couple of interesting 50BMG rounds on display (he wouldn’t sell me one)
We talked a while about Minneapolis and their anti-gun shop policies. No new gun shops in Minneapolis, Minnesota
Check out Get Guns Now, if yer in the area. And if you find my Dash Cam button, let me know, I think I dropped it in their parking lot

Wow, what a cool shop
Tilden Gun in Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin
A really nice shop, an incredible inventory and an interesting layout that keeps you walking around and exploring new things on the shelves, walls and racks
Plenty of Guns, Holsters & support gear AND interesting old collectables and decorative items
A comfortable place to sit and chat, and a friendly shop owner
These are the kind of Gun Shops that keep me going, such a great experience, a MUST see
Check it out if you are ever in the area
Just a few minutes north of the Lienenkugel beer factory

Toms Guns & Woodworking
Another small shop with some history and an active member in the local community
I talked to them for a while and learned how the shop started as a grocery store (many years ago), then in 1978 they started to carry guns also. Eventually the guns became more of the store, and in 2000 they became a guns shop only.
They are big into hunting and run their own youth turkey hunts for many years
Awsome to learn about another shop that has tradition and brings new shooters into our community

The Ammo Box
You KNOW I have to stop at a shop with a name like this
But wait there’s more, as I was looking for shops in the Madison Wisconsin area Google pointed out this one called the ammo box
I scroll down to find some pictures and see the reviews of the shop. And I was pleasantly surprised with their response to their one negative comment
I suggest you find their site on Google Maps and see what I mean
When I arrived the place was as I expected a cool shop that’s been in business for decades, 4 years at this location
Just outside of Madison Wisconsin which is not gun-friendly
The staff was very helpful and knowledgeable and we talked about 2A issues a bit and the history of the store And I may or may not have bought every one of their combloc oil bottles for our patreons
If you need one of these oil bottles for a collection let me know
Exactly the kind of store we like to discover on the Gun show loophole tour

Another view of the impressive handgun display at Marengo Guns in northern Illinois
Dont know if I’ve seen a layout like this (other than SHOT Show) but it really makes itveasy to test and compare
@MarengoGuns
Large Illinois gun shop
Much selection, friendly staff
Hippopotamus skull the planes hanging from the ceiling, a mix of old and new products, the impressive selection of handguns
This all added up to a great experience, and why I enjoy visiting new gun shops
Spent $50
Bought some cool stuff at their shop. We will send that stuff to random Patreon supporters after the trip
