I have dealt with Glenn and his wife and they have always been above board with me.
Been in there a couple of times and not surprised. When powder was scarce saw large containers split into smaller no label containers to charge the per pound price. I haven't been back and won't.
Horrible practice from a safety perspective, too.
I pretty sure it's against the law to repackage gun powder into unmarked containers.
Wouldn't that be a good way to ensure more people can get the powder they need rather than just one person? Seems to me that's thinking about your customers' needs and trying to serve as many as you can.
lol yeah sure, it certainly wasn't to increase profits...
I'm sure if it was all about the profits, he could have just jacked up the price of the 8# container to pretty much anything since people were so desperate during the shortage they'd pay it.

I don't think there's anything illegal about splitting up containers. In fact, I think it's quite common. Here's a pic of an 8 lb jug I bought out at Camp Perry a few years ago. What's the difference between splitting a 55 gallon drum into 8 pounders and splitting an 8lb jug into 1 pounders?
Edit: can't add pic because I've exceed my quota??
P.s. the photo showed a plain white jug with a printed out "8lb Reloaded 15 Military Surplus Powder" taped to the side of it. This vendor sold thousands of these.
