Let's talk about prepping.

They are still shooting ammo from WW2 that has been dug up or stored. Now if it is soaking in water for a long period some might but a lot of ammo is even safeguarded against that.

Thanks for that @Ragnar406, I asked because I’d seen this.

What is the shelf life of ammo and storage? Store reloading components and ammunition in a cool, dry place, protected from direct exposure to sunlight. If stored properly there is a 10-year shelf life on loaded ammunition.

What's the shelf life of factory loaded ammunition?

Does Ammunition Have A Shelf Life? Let’s Take A Look

Guess my lookk on the end of times. I don't need to have the most ammo or supplies. I just need to shoot the guys with what I need a nd then need to shoot the next guy with what I need. Better to be a better shot with 1 .22 than the guy with thousands of rounds of .22

You’ll never have to find out no worries.

IMMEDIATE removal from anyone who is accused of domestic assault or could be a threat to themselves or others.

Don’t know that that’s necessarily a bad thing.

Until you are “accused”, because no spiteful person would EVER do that. No one would work that system.

In a perfect world, I might agree with you, however, I have seen a known anti-gun judge allow an aggressive police officer, (who was dating a man's ex) upon her accusations take the man's guns and then the judge approved it. Now without even needing to go to a judge.......

I hope that you all saw that during the months of February and March 2018 London, England had more murders than New York City, NY!!!!
(and those totals of not include terrorist activities because then England would have dominated for a long time)

But how can that be since guns are almost completely illegal for private ownership in England?

Knives.

If a sick person is going to kill someone, they will find a way.

Back in the 1980's a guy named William Ferry walked into a Winn Dixie with a bucket of gasoline and a zippo lighter. he then proceeded to light everyone up in the cashier line.

Well, it’s what Trump said anyway, shrug.

That’s why I said “necessarily”. Because it would depend.

@Montecresto You link 2 articles were you want me to comment back on them? Not use why those were linked I probably missed it but I did not see your quote above in one of the linked pages?

Like I was saying they are still shooting ammo from WW2 and in fact their is a gov program where you can buy old WW2 guns and Ammo from the government -

The problem with where I live is I'm surrounded by millions of Bernie Sanders lovers. So in other words, everything I have should be theirs. I also have 40- 50' rolls of razor wire....I do not see many strong communities being put together around here. Another reason why I want to move away. Freaking libtard neighbor wants me to sell him a black rifle. Aint gonna happen!

WHAT? You are ate up with Libs in NC???

First thing ...... if you are shooting folks to get what you 'need', you are a murder and no better than the thug in the hood. Second thing ..... there is no guarantee that you will be the better shot. Third thing ...... as the BSA motto says ..... better to "Be Prepared", than figuring on mooching on someone else.

Not necessarily, that’s up to you. And I know about old ammos shelf life, I was referring to reports that there’s been a change made to the ammo giving it a shelf life and don’t know that it’s even true. I was just asking 100 acre about it.

I had heard the shelf life rumor a few years ago. I had also heard something to the effect of traceable ammo. I don't know how they'd go about doing it as I'm no chemist but I'm sure they could figure it out. Otherwise, I don't think it'd be cost effective nor much of a reality at this point. The Ammo I have come across in the past as having a shelf life was due to poor quality manufacturing especially old surplus ammo like Yugo 8mm or Pakistani .303. I don't mess with either caliber anymore although both the Mauser K98's and Lee-Enfields were and still are awesome rifles. I've owned a number of each in the past and both were great rifles. Remington declaring bankruptcy just recently may put something of a shortage out there eventually but I just cannot say for certain.

How do you get through Louisiana mud in a SHTF scenario? To me every step I take just adds more to my growing shoe size. Mom lives in New Iberia, just south of Lafayette. Missin me some Boudin!

Yeah, I hear ya. I can imagine a chemist would easily be able to do it and I can imagine a reason why the government would like to see it happen. But who knows.

Speaking of oil, do any of you store used motor oil? Do you filter it and if so, how?

I do, but I use it for bar and chain oil and to put on my ranch roads to help keep the dust down, so it’s just in 50 gallon drums, no filtering necessary.

Bridge Game floor, Ravine, River or Gully Crossing, Ship's Bridge, Spaceship Control room? If its a bridge bridge, Is it a covered bridge? How far is it?
