Buy Guns
If there's one thing I've paid close attention to over the years it was our inevitable slide into outright fascism. With just a few hiccups, setbacks, disappointments, our overlords have been planning world conquest for them and total servitude for us for a very, very long time. You could say with absolute certainty that this agenda's been around at least since Weishaupt in the 1700s. I'd suggest that was just the coming out party for the current age. Alexander, Qin Shi Huang, the Romans were pikers. Our current would-be gods want the entire earth and beyond.
It's a long sick story, this fascist journey, isn't it? I started an extended rant about it but finally said screw it, I only really wanted to talk about firearms because what the traitorous supreme court ruled several days ago changes everything. It was the final nail in our society's coffin. It was capitalism's putrid triumph - the commodification of life. An opening bell for an insane free for all. If the manipulators think they can get away with something, rest assured they'll go for it. Give up all those thoughts you had for a decade down the road. No more pussified restraint and oversight now, we're about to see a frenzied assault on what's left of we the people.
I expect the internet as we know it to shortly disappear, and I wanted to write a little about personal defense weapons before I wasn't able do it. Not doing any research for this, this is solely my opinion, your mileage may vary. I'm not advocating anything except personal protection and survival but read anything you want into it. If you don't own guns you absolutely should if you ever had the smallest inclination to do so. Millions of americans bought their first guns in the past year and a half, don't be left out. There's only a small window left. Indications are dire and I'm not even talking about natural disasters, time's a wasting and opportunities may vanish like ammunition seems to be doing.
We're all different, old and young, men and women, urban and rural, rich and poor, so I'm going to keep this basic and in generalities. Our future is, well, completely uncertain and we can't rely on anything anymore except ourselves. Weapons are an important part of preparedness, doncha know.
I'm assuming you're completely gun-less. If you just have several hundred dollars to spare, buy a shotgun. I know, a lot of people would insist a handgun should be the thing to get if you were only buying one weapon but here are the reasons for the scattergun. For one thing, quality can be relatively inexpensive. Several years ago I sold a solid shotgun to a friend for $50. For another, they are extremely versatile and can be used for everything from personal protection to hunting birds, small game and large game because you can shoot all kinds of projectiles. Go for simplicity since gunsmiths may be in short supply in the future, so get either a double barrel or pump shotgun, which also is fortuitous because they're the least costly types. 12 gauge is best but 20 gauge is fine, especially for smaller framed people; those two sizes of shells are the most common and available anywhere. Shotguns are easy to keep clean and maintain and at this point in time ammunition is still relatively inexpensive. Buy as much of it you can and practice enough to know your gun. This may not register with you at this point but make sure you have some slugs, OO buck and birdshot and you'll be set for any scenario.
If you have some more money to spend then get a handgun. This is where it gets more complicated since peoples' needs and situations are endless, and it gets more expensive, reasons why I advocate a shotgun first. Basically there are two types - revolvers and semi automatics. It used to be that people new to guns were urged to get revolvers "because they were more simple", cheaper, and easier to shoot. In the last bunch of years those reasons aren't true anymore. Revolvers have gone up in price while pistols have come down. Revolver mechanisms are actually more complicated than semi auto mechanisms although malfunctions in revolvers are easier to fix - you just pull the trigger again. But semi auto pistol technology has advanced so much that reliability in both types are about the same.
I'd suggest going to gun stores and handling them all. Gun store clerks, if they know what's going on, won't have any objections about browsing and should be happy to answer any questions you have. And the internet is chockablock with info about caliber selection, which is a topic that engenders raging mobs of shouting know it alls. Don't be afraid to wade into them, just be wary of the one-size-fits-all mentality. Best thing to do is eventually find a range that rents handguns to shoot and spend a few bucks to try the ones you might settle on. We may not have much time left to fart around but buying a sidearm that you aren't comfortable shooting is at least a waste of time and money and can be lethally dangerous. If you want to save money by buying a used handgun here are some valuable tips. It's best to handle, inspect and shoot a handgun before a purchase, but buying one on the internet can work out well too. One of the best handguns I own I bought from a site called AIM. Another good outfit is J&G Sales and there are many others. By law they'll send firearms to any licensed dealer you choose and then you go fill out the forms and pay the fees to pick it up. You can actually save big time that way.
Whatever you get, buy as much ammo for it you can and practice as much as you're able to. Disassemble it if it's a pistol, handle it, dry fire with snap caps, really get to know it. Get a holster that's made for your gun even if you don't intend to wear it; it'll keep it cleaner and it's safer if you keep it loaded. Cleaning kits are cheap and universal ones can clean all calibers, including that shotgun I hope you bought.
Having a shotgun and a sidearm with a store of ammunition, to me, is absolutely mandatory. Let's face it, times are perilous beyond belief. Like I mentioned above the supreme court has just unleashed our psychotic and monstrous corporatocracy on us. Next up - wars for profit and a collapsed economy. Throw in natural, or unnatural, disasters and in rough times not having the ability to defend yourself and loved ones or obtain food is not an option.
