What an incredible business opportunity to black market ammunition. Still no one learns from prohibition.

I got that part, but thanks.
Ummm...this part I didn’t get:
“doing a land office business”
Maybe this is an expression simply meaning, “making a very profitable business of”...?
The expression is new to me. Or...maybe it’s not an expression but has something to do with an actual land office..?
:/
The stupid, it burns.

“The expression is new to me. Or...maybe it’s not an expression but has something to do with an actual land office..?”
It’s an expression that grew out of the Oklahoma land rush and to a lesser extent the one that took place later in Nevada east of Reno when the Lahontan Dam was built and the immediate area was opened up to homesteading. My wife’s grandparents were too young to get land in Oklahoma so they came West to Northern Nevada to lay claim to “government” land in Fallon, NV. As it happens, we were in Fallon last weekend, and there were a lot of Californians purchasing their ammunition there, hence the term “land office business.”
Ah!
Very cogent explanation, thank you.
I love learning arcana like this, awesome..!
Wouldn’t it be better if only the Police Sold Drugs and eliminate the turf wars altogether??
Then the police would be the cartel. Hanging bodies from bridges and fighting each other for control of interstate routes.
The police wouldn’t have time for
this, and would have to limit sales
of bullets (cartridges) to Tuesday
and Thursday, between the hours of
2:00pm and 3:00pm. Closed on weekends
and holidays.
