Re: Panic Buying

J&G Sales didn't price gouge and their customer service was top notch. A week ago they sent me the wrong order, 300 rounds of GECO .357mag 158gr full metal jacket semi-wadcutter, when I had ordered 300 rounds of GECO .357mag 158gr jacketed hollowpoint (the Swiss owned, German made brand, GECO, is ve...

Reloading

IMHO, this is not TEOTWAWKI. This is the dress rehearsal for it. Once again, there is a run on guns, only this time it is accompanied by a run on toilet paper, sardines, chicken, etc. One of the key things that quarantine is good for is to hunker down and sort your stuff, and find holes in your prep...

Re: Here they come

As a polite heads up, friends have called me about large amounts of military vehicle traffic on the roads and freeways in the southeastern part of the country. One source who works at the Pentagon has said there is a very high possibility that in a week or less they will shut down the country, excep...
