You have to be at least 18 years old to purchase ammunition in Vermont.

No restrictions on non-residents other than that.

Inspired by the murder of Helle Crafts, wife of Richard Crafts, in Newtown CT.

Looks like my youngest daughter, Parker, may be attending the University of Vermont in the fall as a freshman. Thought maybe at some point over the next four years I might try and make the Vermont State Trap shoot. I think I can manage flying with guns but might have trouble with three or four flats of shells. :rolleyes:

You’d like to think any state trap shoot would have ammo available at the shoot , but in this day and age I’d not take that for granted anylonger .

Edgar, a chest freezer and rock crusher are better than a chipper. Being in stone quarry country, I've read about it. :shock: :rotf::rotf:

John might I suggest , if you don’t already have a hard case or two long enough for 32-34 inch barrels start searching for some used Nasco or Americase cases . If they’re long enough I’m sure you can always find someone to redo the interior compartments . There may be others that stand up as well but I’ve personally seen Americase and Nasco cases stand up to some pretty intense bangs drops collisions whatever you care to call it . Now the downside is they aren’t light !

If you’d caught me a few years earlier I coulda done some steam powered rock crushing for you !

Uh oh
 

Well boys, I expect you will receive a visit from some men dressed in polyester and tin in the near future. Mr. Edgar I will be the guardian of your 16 gauges until the investigation is complete.

I am unsure as to whom tipped them off to this post.

If you have a problem of purchasing ammo in Vermont, just drive east a bit to the Live Free or Die State of New Hampshire and you may purchase all the ammo you want with NO questions asked! We have concealed carry with no permit required.

Or Maine...The first time I tried I asked the clerk at Cabellas if I needed Maine ID. his reply was “I don’t give a f--k if you live on the moon”.
