Since this caliber is still popular “east,” perhaps Saiga might give it a go? I’d buy one.

Try widening the adjustable red laser “pointer” to about a foot in diameter. It’s better than watching fireworks. Very cool.
Nahhh. Put it in the root cellar, you'll be fine.
Keep in mind there is considerable (justified) paranoia out there. The aware American KNOWS that BOs minions are watching anyone joining such groups.
You are correct, but there is safety in numbers, that's why I say join the growing crowd...

I’ve dabbled a bit in the Infantry/Special Ops business, but have never actually been “shot at by anyone who really meant it” ...
I remember loading up the backpack before heading out ... throw in some ammunition, and a canteen, and some more ammunition, and a few parachute flares, and some more ammunition, and some smoke grenades and a sleeping bag, and a little more ammunition, and some C-rations and a couple spare pairs of socks, and a little more ammunition, and pretty soon the darned pack weighed half as much as I did.
My own preferred cartridge, .30-’06, with 168 grain bullets seems to weigh about 30 lbs per 500 rounds.
In my home country Australia, especially in Sydney, where I live, robbers have blown up ATMs first with gas, and then C2.
Recall that David Petraeus took a 5.56mm round through the chest, and was out jogging a couple of days later.
If I end up having to shoot something, I want it to “stay shot”.
And their medications? How do you maintain a stockpile of FDA-regulated supplies? The FDA must be stopped, too.
So keep up the good work people, every box of ammo and every gun is a vote against Statism.
It'll take a while, but in my experience you can get a 30-day prescription refilled after 25 days.
Thus, every six months you can accumulate an "extra" month's supply.
Simpler, if you've got an "understanding" doctor, get a second prescription and have it filled at a different pharmacy. Don't expect the insurance company to cover that one, though.
Shortly after the end of the Cold War, a group of high-ranking American military officials were attending an international military conference overseas. One of the Americans asked his Russian counterpart if the Soviet Union had ever seriously considered invading the United States.
The Russian laughed and said, “Oh no.....you people have too many guns over there.”
RANDOM THOUGHTS on your posting:
Militias need to be formed again and drills again reinstituted. Ammo is one thing, but the discipline to come together in an organized way to meet the foe is also needed. (By the way, if Washington could have had accees to those neat 16 mile 2 way radios that one can buy(2 for 10 dollars), the Rev. War would have been ended real quick; the point being, stock up on portable radios 2 way and other wise)
I think the country has become unwieldy and needs to be separated into several smaller countries or barring that, an increase of the Representation side of the government. A congress of 535 just can’t represent a country of 320 million adequately. It’s too easy for one party to get control over parts of the country that they really shouldn’t be in control by the use of gerry mandering.
I think the congress should be tripled in size in terms of its congessional districts and reps, and the senate should be increased to 150, with third senator being directly appointed by each state legislature to give a stronger voice for states rights. Our two party system is distorted because we are actually underrepresented!
We already belonged, we have been on the lists, including the concealed carry lists for quite a while. Just suspect this is the reason for the apparent lack of growth in these groups.
I know a guy with a semi auto PPSH and is very happy with it. Hes got a stockpile of ammo and considers it a very viable PDW.
