My God, we have a thinker in our midst.
Heaven forbid!
I suspect you are correct. Someone told them that there are lots of flyover country boys that have those calibers and they need to know how to protect themselves.
That makes sense.
It also makes the 1.6 billion .40’s and 2700 armoured vehicles more ominous.
“Lets arm ourselves and be sure that we are protected against the red necks with .45 colts, 30-30 lever actions...”
Ominous, ominous ominous....
Or How about, “Let’s buy ammunition for the large variety of firearms we’ll be seizing from American citizens.”
.22-250 is pretty popular around here for varmint hunting.Folks shoot woodchucks out to 400 yards or so with that caliber.
Yes. Makes sense.
