My first thought too - how could it get any worse?
Not worse when America is being saturated with guns, not content with one AR many are buying more for the family, and historically the average gun owner never had more than a box or two of cartridges now they are thing of a protracted long battle may be forced upon them individually, and since the Feds won’t offer any program to help the individual stock up on much needed emergency protection ammunition they are doing it all the way as many do in America....with style.
One rifle, 100 rounds in years past, now its several rifles and pistols, on average now three long guns and two pistols per house, each with several thousand round, if there is a .22lr the smart ones have no less than 5,000 rounds or ten bricks. Severe ammo buyers are actually getting more like a 6 figure amount.
The general consensus is that Americans will be forced to some form of a Revolutionary war against an invasive illegal government. And they want to be as best prepared as they can.
