Reach out to these guys. Super friendly and it's currently their bread and butter.

You’re one of the two people in the country with an ATC?.

A lot more than 2 people with a wilderness ATC. You’re probably thinking of the one due to threats against the person

To be fair it was bed time when I made the post lol.

Just wondering about processing times, springs coming and I have gold to find. Not going into heavy grizzly country without protection lol.

stay strapped. 2 months sounds like call worthy timing imo

Good luck finding someone with experience with that. You might be the first since the handgun freeze.

It's more common than people think. It's just not made public often.
