It all brought things into focus, though, forcing us to take stock of necessities, and what we needed to acquire immediately. Not one single person whom I know had any idea of how long it would last, or to what extent it would be taken to. That state of emergency left us all feeling very uneasy. When things began locking down, many people instantly prioritized a few things around the house: How much food, supplies, water, and ammo do I currently have? How long will it last? What do I need to grab right now? I hate to bring it up, but at present, we’re coming out of the Covid Panic. The reason I ask is because we need to have a goal to directly address what we’re trying to accomplish. Many of us jokingly (or seriously) are fond of saying, “There’s no such thing as too much.” What Is The Mission?Īs I always ask, what are we trying to accomplish? Are we setting ourselves up for hunting? Self-Defense? Disaster? Zombie Apocalypse? All of the above? He had a couple hundred thousand rounds stored up.Īll of this begs the question: how much is enough? One of my friends used to have so much surplus rifle ammo stored in his basement that he used stacked cases of it as the legs to a table.
That got us thinking…what’s considered excessive? I know people that have tens of thousands of rounds stored in their house. Most of my gun enthusiast friends burst out laughing, exclaiming, “That’s nothing! You should see my gun safe!!” Complete with a couple hundred rounds of ammo. It seems that every other night on the news, we hear that police at So-And-So’s house “Uncovered a huge stockpile of weapons and ammunition.” The camera pans to show the “massive” haul, which often consists of an AR-15, a bolt action rifle, a shotgun, and two or three handguns.
