Guns & Groceries....VT living.

Stopped by Singleton's General Store in Proctorsville,VT.

Picked up some corn whiskey, smoked pork chops and a tee shirt etc... .....no guns bought though.

Have been vacationing in VT for decades..really in love with the state...Was gonna retire there in 3 years till I saw this...

Where Are The Best And Worst States To Retire? | Bankrate.com

Although I give them much props on their firearm laws, Vermont, (out of 50 states) is in the 40's for cost of living & taxes. (Thanks Bernie). Still can't wait to go back (for vacation)..

Check out who #50 (worst state to retire) is....shocker?

That is worth a visit to. Wonder how many like these are left?

My kind of store!

The smoked pork chops were awesome. Yeah. 4th time to Vt for me. The politicians do fuck up everything. Contemplating an old bolt action remington 22 not far from here but stock would have to be refinished and old period weaver scope is trash.

Gats and groceries. A one stop shop for the modern man.

Very nice. You can get "loaded" twice.

No work only wiping, old gun sticks are easy unless you want new looking high gloss

Well I picked up a consignment Remington 512 Sportsmaster 22s,22l &22lr up at a small rural gunshop in VT on my FFL03. Took the old Weaver K10 scope off. Crosshairs were not centered. Metal is in good shape so no need to reblue it. Rifleing and bolt looks good. Rifle is dirty as hell but action is solid. Only real thing to do is to remove worn laquer from stock as half of the stock laquer is already worn away. Two small chips on plastic buttstock plate but not a deal breaker as this is a shooter for me. No serial number but dated it based on barrel markings to June 1954. Paid $200

Wife is from West Rutland. I may offer to take her for a visit this summer.

Funny how the state hasn't declined into a bunch of rednecks killing each other over nothing, after getting all liquored up, like the progressives insinuate every time someone dare mention loosening redundant and worthless infringements on the 2nd Amendment. Don't forget the children!

 

[218bee]

Absolutely....if you look at the 50 top states to retire link I posted above, Vermont is #1 for the best crime rate. (Safest)... Food for thought..

So in other words, the State of Vermont actually has convenience stores that sell Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF)?

Forget Maine. Vermont: The way life should be.
