Do any of your STR tenants try to buy guns/ammo from you?

Had a group of 14 guys move in over the last few days.  Half of them asked me if I had any ammunition or guns for sale.  Ammunition they wanted was .380, 9mm and .45.  Guns that they wanted were pistols.  They are all from Louisiana.  Let's hear your stories.

 Tenants that are temporary workers can ask a lot of questions.  They are stuck somewhere for 2-4 months and need things to do in their off times.  I used to travel with work for 50% of my time and would ask random questions like 'where could I find---' to anyone, sometimes even store clerks.
