Honestly, if society collapses, or we hit a period of hyper inflation, 9x19 Parabellum might be more useful as currency than gold or silver.

Barter will be vogue. Particularly should electricity become unreliable. No ATM, no fuel, etc.

Early on, stock whiskey cigs and I suppose mary jane! Maybe non-perishables.

Ammunition is *already* there for those who've had it on the shelf for > 12 months. It's been an *excellent* performer for those inclined to sell (of which there are few).

Ammo prices have greatly outpaced increases in precious metal prices over the last few years. I know people selling off some of their inventory for up to 10 times what they paid for it.

“9x19 Parabellum might be more useful as currency than gold or silver”

There’s no denying that under extreme circumstance the former can get you the latter.
