About D & D Redoubt

Family-Owned | Montana Values | American Pride

Our Montana Story

D & D Redoubt was born from a simple belief: that quality, independence, and American-made excellence still matter.

We're a Montana family who grew tired of seeing American manufacturing decline, watching big-box stores push inferior products, and witnessing the erosion of values that built this country. So we decided to do something about it.

Based in Deer Lodge County—in the heart of Montana's rugged Big Sky Country—D & D Redoubt stands at the intersection of four passions:

  • AMSOIL Synthetic Lubricants: Because your equipment deserves American-made protection that actually works in Montana's extreme climate.
  • Black Hat Distillery: Celebrating Montana's rebellious distilling heritage with small-batch craft spirits.
  • Firearms & Training: Supporting your Second Amendment rights with expert instruction and honest service.
  • A Girl & A Gun: Empowering Montana women through firearms education and community.

We're not here to be the biggest. We're here to be the best—and to serve our Montana neighbors with integrity, expertise, and genuine care.

The Principles That Guide Us

Proudly American

We support American manufacturers, defend the Constitution, and believe in the values that made this nation great. When possible, we choose American-made over imported—always.

Veteran-Friendly

We honor those who served. Veterans receive special consideration, discounts, and recognition. If you wore the uniform, you're family here.

Montana Born & Raised

We're not carpetbaggers or out-of-state investors. We live here, work here, and raise our families here. Montana isn't a business opportunity—it's home.

Quality Over Quantity

We'd rather sell you one excellent product that lasts a lifetime than ten cheap ones that fail. If we won't use it ourselves, we won't sell it to you.

Second Amendment Advocates

The right to keep and bear arms isn't negotiable. We support lawful firearm ownership, responsible carry, and your constitutional freedoms without apology.

Community First

We're neighbors, not just a business. We support local schools, veterans organizations, and community events. Montana thrives when we lift each other up.

Why "Redoubt"?

The word "redoubt" has deep meaning for us.

re·doubt (noun)

1. A fortified defensive position; a stronghold.
2. A place of refuge or safety.

Montana has always been a redoubt—a place where people who value freedom, self-reliance, and independence can thrive. It's where frontiersmen carved homesteads from wilderness, where miners sought fortune, where ranchers built legacies.

D & D Redoubt represents that same spirit: a place where traditional American values aren't just tolerated—they're celebrated. A stronghold for quality, integrity, and the belief that individuals should be free to live, work, and protect themselves without government overreach.

When you do business with D & D Redoubt, you're not just buying a product or service. You're standing with people who believe in the same principles you do.

What Makes Us Different

We Actually Use What We Sell

Every drop of AMSOIL we recommend? We run it in our own vehicles. Every firearm we sell? We've shot it. Every training technique? We practice it ourselves. We're not salespeople—we're users.

Honest Advice, Always

We'll tell you the truth, even if it costs us a sale. If a cheaper option will work for you, we'll say so. If you don't need something, we won't sell it to you. Our reputation matters more than a quick buck.

Small Enough to Care

You won't deal with indifferent employees or corporate scripts. When you call, you'll talk to us. When you visit, we'll remember your name. You're not a transaction—you're a neighbor.

Big Enough to Deliver

Small business doesn't mean limited capability. We're licensed (FFL/SOT), insured, experienced, and connected to industry leaders. You get personal service with professional results.
