Looks great, congrats. We have a Ruger Wrangler S/A .22 and it is a ton of fun to plink with. Have fun.
Give us a range report when you have a chance to spend some time shooting !!!
I do like living in MO....plunk down your cash, do the form, wait between 1 and 10 minutes or so...Then take it home !
Love my Montana. Face to Face sales. Great guns and ammo at garage sales.
Hood ??? that aint no gun from a hood. Son thats a cowboy gun there.
You're going to get a laugh out of this.... My dad goes in to get the gun. I had put it in his name because he has a real ID and I wasn't sure how all that worked with online sales. Our LGS just keeps a copy of my birth certificate on file... Anyway, the manager who we know and do our business with has to give dad a lesson on how to operate the gun before it can leave the store and he had to take a test even though he bought his 1911 just 2 years ago. 😳🙄🤔😡🤬
What crazy times we live in. Dad was glad we had watched a YouTube video on the Heritage. Lol

bet the leaves are shaking all the way to their roots.........
Damn. Ten days? I can walk into a store here and be back out to my car in 10 minutes or done in 30 seconds face to face.
Why wait till the weather clears up? just open a window. Looks like it will be a fun gun to shoot.
And then it's takes at least a half hour to buy it and another one to pick it up 🙄

Not a completely bad idea to go over a new gun with a customer, BUT...
@Lady Rae Does the manager have to be schooled & certified to do this?
Probably lol it's ACE Hardware so they probably make them jump through extra hoops.
I have learned to never underestimate Commifornia and it's stupidness... I go through a lot of trouble just to buy ammo. Pretty bad when you start carrying a copy of your birth certificate with you. I'm sure when I get a Real ID it will be a bit easier 🙄🤪

They are a hoot. Love mine.
OMG, what if you hit a frog or fish???
Do it right. Haul some old TVs, a refrigerator, and glass bottles down to the pond bank to shoot at.
Broken glass will eventually turn into smooth pretty glass stones. In a few hundred years of tumbling along the shore line! 😲
I remember here in Michigan over 20+ years ago, I had to take a newly purchased pump pellet pistol into the local county sheriff for inspection and permit to keep it!!
That's why I love Kentucky..I can go to the flea market this weekend..buy a gun and bring it home..no worries...
No 10 day wait here in Colorado. Yet. But more of California moves here every day so it's probably just a matter of time.
I've looked at that Rough Rider a few times and thought it would be a fun one. Good to know it's a nice little plinker.
