Civilians are buying pallets of 5.56 ammunition and AR-15 style rifles now made by more companies than ever are flying off the shelves. No matter what rational arguments we have to the contrary, this is a country preparing for war.
AR-15’s are good to have, but I’m practicing how to fire from inside or outside my vehicle. Lots of practice firing with the car moving or stopped. Crazed leftie mobs are a motorist’s greatest threat, IMHO. They may even target vehicles on the open road with the “wrong” bumper sticker. So far, my Israeli flag hasn’t drawn fire yet.
Practice is done out in the country where the widow landowner begs me to come and shoot guns ‘till the cows come home, because the noise signals anyone within earshot that it is dangerous to approach the farmhouse without prior notice (”Come anytime but be sure you call first, I got my CCW.”)
Wouldn’t want to be helpless and disarmed in Europe these days.
