I’m not gloating and I feel sorrowful that many are looking at bare shelves and extremely high prices for guns and ammo elsewhere, in Alaska you do not need any license to conceal carry and they do have restriction such as around schools and courthouses. I trip over full coolers full of ammo, primers powder and mags in my man cave.
By and large almost every rural person has at least a shotgun and a heavy caliber, and I mean heavy calibers. Interestingly the AR has not a big following up here because of its miniscule size, instead people do heavily rely upon ultra magnum calibers such as Weatherby, stuff more usually found in Africa, and a loyal following of Garands and the M1A.
To me even the .308 is just a moderate cartridge here in Alaska. Most people put more faith in the .338wincher magnum than any other cartridge, one loon even shot the Alaska pipeline with that round, punctured it and shut it down for several days.
Obama has already pre-emptively stricken Alaska with a shot across our bows, he has suspended a decades long practice of giving Canada highway repairs funding for the Alaska Highway on the most dangerous roughest stretch just before the Alaska border.
Just a heads up for anyone thinking about driving here, what was a terrible road may hardly even be a road soon. Obama hates Alaska because of Sarah Palin, a simple woman that had America motivated just enough to be a real threat to his agenda.
And still is.
