I wanted to be the guy who looked like he had a clue, only owning 556/9mm.
But since I’m generally clueless, I then added 22LR to the mix because it’s cheap and fun to shoot...
then .45...
Definately one way to look at it, but I prefer to think of them as purpose-specific tools (as opposed to toys; mostly, anyway).I wanted to be the guy who looked like he had a clue, only owning 556/9mm.
But since I’m generally clueless, I then added 22LR to the mix because it’s cheap and fun to shoot...
then 45 because I couldn’t bear to sell my Dan Wesson....
then 300 Blackout because they’re SOOO quiet suppressed...
then 6.5CM because snipers...
Now I really want a 308 because it’s marginally cheaper to shoot that 6.5CM.
But after that, I’m done.
Until the next shiny thing comes along.

This is why many of us went to one caliber for handgun a shotgun and a rifle after the last few rounds of this crap.If we have any REAL SHTF situation,
all that ammo in different calibers is unlikely to go with us to wherever. . . . . .
Are we actually going to carry six pistols in different calibers?
Better to have lots in the one or two calibers we are most likely to carry away !
Other than .223/.556, do you have enough ?
Just realized that I told my LEO Son to shoot up a bunch of expensive older defensive handgun stuff, which he said worked perfectly when fired at ranges. Now very low on everything not .45ACP.
Lesson being learned!
Y'all take care !

I have entirely not enough .45 self defense ammo. Tons of target ammo, tons of 9mm. Just a box and a half of .45 hollowpoints.
If I survive til the next panick I'll make sure to have more.

Fixed fortifications are a testament to the follies of man.
I get it but the local marauders don't ride in Abrams nor is patton leading them.
It's all about choices and consequences.

? Like cute chicks in miniskirts ?
I generally agree with most of the replies, BUT, any of us could be FORCED from our homes by fire, flood, infestation, etc.
The idea of fortresses was debunked centuries ago. For very serious reasons.
Bon Chance,

Fortresses only became obsolete after the invention of heavy artillery.
Case in point, forts were a viable concept during frontier days, since Injuns didn't ride around with field pieces.
Works great until you get them mixed upLiquor in the front.
Poker in the rear.

I’ve got about 1,000 rounds of 45 hollow points, and only a single gun that uses them. And that gun is just sitting in my safe.
Happy to ship some to you if you want

Could always use more ammo but this thread made me realize I need more mags!
I find that to be a frequent condition with many folks.Could always use more ammo but this thread made me realize I need more mags!
