***I got a shotgun rifle and a 4-wheel drive.***

Better to have a crossbow & a horse - when bullets and gas run out;)

You know why the South never ran out of gunpowder?

Because they mined the saltpeter in WVA, right under the Union’s nose. Literally. For a few weeks, a Union Division was camped on top of the mine. Production never even slowed.

Sulpher and charcaol you can get anywhere - but saltpeter - well, either find a good mine, or get ready to go outhouse-crawling.

Still, lots & lots of americans have produced their own gunpowder for hunting, using nothing more than “night soil”.

And there is enought lead for balls around (Tire weights) to last generations.

Shouldn’t that be “a shotgun, rifle, and a 4-wheel drive?”

Or is there a shotgun that is also a rifle?
