If they’re gonna be using 9mm, they at least shouldn’t be running FMJs.

The author seems to have read Rachel Carson, fwiw.

Thanks for the post, Kartographer. Good read.
For my part, I’ll hang onto my 1911’s. I’ve used/carried them for many years. Only thing I add is an ambi safety, as I shoot left-handed, and hard rubber grips.

Another barter item is imported alcohol. Hard and expensive to get in a shtf but still sought after.

I am stunned that they had to scrape and barter for food and mere essentials. I am shocked and disgusted that our troops are treated this way.
