Atta Boy!

Now, I hope you also have another room with the necessary “home protection” implements to maintain custody of these goods.

I've got significant amounts of canned beef, chicken, tuna, salmon & corned beef. Sadly (not really) I just couldn't bring myself to hoard Spam.

One of the tough things to have for long term storage is a bread type product. I finally came up with Pilot Bread Crackers. Similar to what we had in K rations (as I remember them, I was a military kid), only better. 100 calories of basic carbs per cracker & 20 year shelf life.

Supposedly a sawed off Mosin Nagant, 7.62 x 54R. Likely photoshop ... the recoil would break your wrist.

This is the kind of recoil I like. Pulling the trigger of this is somehow more sobering to me than my AR15. A devastating weapon at close range.

Walmart in Wasilla, Alaska looks just like that, started stocking last week and its been flying off the shelves. I have 20 cans of everything from scrambled eggs to instant honey, going to get some more tomorrow.

Good shotguns, bottom ejection, cost under $175 during sales. ... I’m really into shotguns right now. Just bought an Akkar 20 gauge semi auto and chopped the barrel to 18 1/2 inches. Working on 2 inch roll crimped shells with #2 shot. Allows an extra round int he magazine tube. With slugs, it’s like having a .45 caliber rifle that will shoot many other ‘things’. Also just finished trick out a Maverick 88 12 gauge. Put a Mossberg 500 18 inch barrel on it and a pistol grip collapsible stock. Added velcro side saddles to both. The 20 has seven rounds in side sadlle and six on butt stock saddle.

I prefer the smaller packaging of the Future Essentials.

I ate a can of the first batch I ordered. I have no complaints. I think of this stuff as camping food. Of which I did/ate a lot as a kid. We always had K rations around, which of course we kids thought were uber cool.

I noticed that one important provision is being over looked. And I'm not being silly. Unopened it keeps forever. Mentally medicinal and certainly valuable for barter.

I consider a couple of cases of good liquor an essential ingredient of survival stores. Bourbon of course being the best option.

I've got about 10 half gallon bottles of Vodka stored.

Costco, too, is offering a longer-term survival package @ $3600 IIRC.
