I’ve done my part.
You don’t have to be paranoid to prudently prepare to protect yourself from a regime that’s constantly threatening us all
Ps: and if America manages to survive the next two years without open warfare on its citizens , your guns can still be used for regular self defense so nothing lost
I’ll bet “da conomy” would really be in the toilet if it wasn’t for these great gun sales numbers. I’m doing my part to help “da conomy” recover. Mainly because I have to replace the guns that I lose during boating accidents every summer. I’m a lousy canoe paddler.
Just came back from the gun shop.
Sales have gone way down around here, the place was dead.
I am deciding whether to purchase a DPMS Mini SASS or a Springfield Armory M1A Scout Squad. I like the stopping power of the Scout but not the weight. Decisions, decisions.
I know that folks love the AR/AK style rifles. I had one ‘to play with’ in the wild and wooly Southeast Asia. I had the opportunity ‘to play with’ an AK and SKS rifle, as well.
Once I came back to the Continental 48, I washed my hands of them. Why? The M16-not-A1 was a squirrel rifle to me. The AK is a .308 with a short case with ballistics near a .30-30 Winchester.
Sooooo, I went .32-20 in a lever action. I didn’t need a ‘military round’, and I didn’t desire owning a semi-automatic rifle, BTDT.
Yes, yes, yes, there will be those who would scream at me for eschewing what has become today’s answer to the iconic lever action, the semi-automatic rifle, for all the thousands of reasons that would exist. Remember, readers, I shot all three ‘frames’ for 3 years straight, and was not impressed to rush out and purchase any of the three.
Now, in these times, my lever actions are either .357 Magnums, or if I really need something, a nice guide gun, in .45-70 Government. When I see what is transpiring in the streets, I flip the coin between a .357 Magnum Remington factory load favored by Bill Jordan, that does well on coyotes to over 85 yards, or a Winchester factory load of a 405 grain flat point bullet, originally designed for trap-door muskets. If either one is ever employed in such a fashion, I am sure that either one would be “ a streetsweeper”.
