Houston Ammo Sales up

Post by bignflnut »

A gun dealer in Houston said last week ammunition is flying off the shelves in the wake of Hurricane Harvey.

James Hillin, owner of Full Armor Firearms, told The Trace Friday his phones “are blowing off the hook” as reports of looting gain traction.

“What people want is ammo,” he said. “People want to arm up and protect themselves from the looters.”

Houston law enforcement arrested more than 40 people last week for looting and related crimes as the city recovers from more than four feet of rain and unprecedented flooding unlike anything Texas has ever seen. The storm has killed at least 39 people, so far.
Makes one wonder about the aftermath in Florida...where the demographics are, say, different.
