I also have full cammo BDU’s for all four seasons of this region, including black “night ops” gear ... And Level-IIIA vests and helmets.

I’m moderately prepared but you have me beat by a mile. If you really have all you items you claim, you have spent a small fortune.

“If you really have all you items you claim, you have spent a small fortune.”

The items were accumulated over the course of 20 years - and I never kept much track of the costs. The ammo alone would be significant, since I bought a large portion during the Obama years, when ammo prices doubled and then tripled - if you could even get the calibers needed.

Most of my survival gear was purchased in the mid to late 90s, when prices were far more reasonable. Replacement would likely be very difficult to impossible now - particularly the body armor.

Ever since the attacks of September 11, 2001, access to effective body armor has become increasingly restricted - and in some cases unavailable to any but those in the military or law enforcement.

Most of the body armor available for purchase on the internet is Chi-com crap, or else is only capable to defeat small caliber rounds (9mm, .38, .44 mag). Ceramic-steel plates, which will stop a 7.62 / .308 rifle round, are nearly impossible to purchase without having proof of being either an LEO or else a government official - which is exactly as the global elites want the situation.
