Good thing we don’t have cellars in south Louisiana :)

That is a really good quote.
Back in WWII, people nitpicked that there were too many artillary shells shipped to North Africa. Congress held a hearing and demanded cutbacks.
Then after we advanced through France our artillery was sometimes practically worthless — rationed to one or three shots a day sometimes.
Our economy is treated the same way — inventories are taxed. Do people have any idea what danger that leads to? Tight inventory on food, medicine, shovels, etc. Just look at the blizzard and runs on stores. Storage space should be ENCOURAGED, and so should inventory.
Good article.
I’m working on building an AR.
Always remember, a firearm without ammo is just expensive paperweight. Ammo could be the currency of the future when the dollar fails.
Today is a great day to buy more ammo. After all, it’s the first Monday of this week.

I see you’re one of those unstable terrorist types, you know, the crazy person who has more than 50 rounds of ammunition...
Learning to make your own is a very useful skill as well.
“I’m working on building an AR.”
Unless that stands for “Armored Regiment” , It should take longer to finish a pot of coffee.
I just wish I had the money to stock up. I’ll just have to do what I can.
I see you are racist against hand guns, lol
‘Don’t forget training.’
Good advice almost universally overlooked. Having the tools arent enough and in fact are only a small %age of the equation.
‘Do you think a country this politically divided can’t devolve into violence? ‘
Food for thought esp snice its not only conservatives who are buying guns and ammo.
>> You better have a lot of help defending a static position by ones self is a losing proposition.
Where to begin?
A) I never said “by myself”.
B) You have no idea what I’ll be defending... do you? Or where it is. (And we’ll keep it that way.)
C) Some things are worth dying for.
D) “Bugging out” is pretty damn risky too. If the S really does hit the fan, there is precious little safety to be expected by anyone, anywhere.
> I have never, ever had anyone tell me that he had too much ammunition.
And I’ll bet that you never said, “Gee, I wish we’d had fewer bullets.” Something no combat veteran said, ever.
All my handguns keep getting lost in boating accidents. :(
