[ Anyone reading and understanding the books would be purchasing automatic rifles and barrels of ammunition, not bows and arrows. ]
Well yes of course, because you would want to prevent the USA from turning into “Agenda 21 porn realized” in the first place.
Of course after the “Hunger Games Scenario” is “realized” I am sure the government has already taken away the citizen’s rights to have and use guns. So it is nice to have archery skills as a backup, but archery skills are much more useless against tanks etc.. than having a high powered rifle.
It is a LOT harder to vote from the rooftops when the situation requires it using a bow and arrow than it is using a high powered rifle with a decent scope. Plus making a arrow go through Blue Helmets is a LOT harder than a decent rifle round.
